Snake Surprise

Snake Surprise

Snakes can’t open and close their eyes now that’s a surprise.
(Child points to their eyes.)

Snakes have no ears like you and me. They listen through their
bones for sounds you see.
(Child points to their ears.)

You smell with your nose. A snake smells with its tongue. Its tongue
goes in and out now isn’t that fun.
(Child points to their nose and then makes their tongue go in and
out.)

Snakes have no legs. They just slither around. (Child points to their
legs.)

They slither up your knees and to your waist and oh for goodness
sakes there’s a snake on your face!!
(Parent slithers an arm snake up their child’s body and then tickles
the child’s face.)
