    The Body

    Hello, I have just came across your resources. I think they are very well made and look fun. I particuly like the My Body Sheet where the child can name each part. This can also be used for word matching. I will be adding your email page to my list of resources. Like the free stuff too. (its very kind of you)
    I work as a creche worker and also a playwoker the smiley tokens, I can use for the children with autism aswell.
