 Five senses, five senses 
 We have them. We have them. 
 Seeing, hearing, touching, 
 Tasting and smelling. 
 There are five. There are five.

The Five Senses Song (Tune: Old Mac Donald Had a Farm)
On my face I have two eyes;
I use them every day.
They are used to help me see
They are used to help me see
I look and watch with my eyes
;
I use them every day!

On my face I have a nose;
I use it all the time.
I use it to help me smell
I use it to help me smell
I sniff and smell with my nose;
I use it all the time!

In my mouth I have a tongue;
I use it when I eat.
I can taste all my food
I can taste all my food
I eat and taste with my tongue;
I use it when I eat!

On my head I have two ears;
I use them to listen.
So I can hear this song!

So I hear this song!
I use my ears to hear and
listen all day long!

On my body I have skin;
From atop my head to my feet.
I can touch and feel,
I can touch and feel,
On my body I have skin;

To feeling cold and heat!
