Let’s have fun learning about our fingers! We have five fingers on each hand. Let’s meet each one and learn their special names.
Can you find your Daddy Finger? It’s the big one called the Thumb. Let’s say hello!
“Daddy finger, daddy finger, where are you?”
“Here I am, here I am, how do you do?”
“Daddy finger, daddy finger, what’s your name?”
“Thumb, thumb, that’s my name!”
Next is the Mommy Finger. It’s the one we use to point at things. It’s called the Pointer Finger.
“Mommy finger, mommy finger, where are you?”
“Here I am, here I am, how do you do?”
“Mommy finger, mommy finger, what’s your name?”
“Pointer finger, pointer finger, that’s my name!”
Now, let’s find the Brother Finger. It’s the tallest one in the middle. We call it the Middle Finger.
“Brother finger, brother finger, where are you?”
“Here I am, here I am, how do you do?”
“Brother finger, brother finger, what’s your name?”
“Middle finger, middle finger, that’s my name!”
Here comes the Sister Finger. It’s the one next to the middle finger. We call it the Ring Finger.
“Sister finger, sister finger, where are you?”
“Here I am, here I am, how do you do?”
“Sister finger, sister finger, what’s your name?”
“Ring finger, ring finger, that’s my name!”
Last is the Baby Finger. It’s the smallest one called the Pinky Finger.
“Baby finger, baby finger, where are you?”
“Here I am, here I am, how do you do?”
“Baby finger, baby finger, what’s your name?”
“Pinky finger, pinky finger, that’s my name!”
Now we know all the fingers: Thumb, Pointer Finger, Middle Finger, Ring Finger, and Pinky Finger. Let’s say hello to the whole Finger Family!
“Finger family, finger family, where are you?”
“Here we are, here we are, how do you do?”
Great job meeting the Finger Family! Now you can use your fingers to count, point, and play!
Finger Puppet Play: Create simple finger puppets using paper and crayons. Draw faces on each puppet to represent the different members of the Finger Family: Daddy, Mommy, Brother, Sister, and Baby. Once your puppets are ready, put them on your fingers and act out the Finger Family song. Can you make your puppets dance and sing along?
Finger Painting Fun: Use your fingers to paint a picture. Try using each finger to make different shapes or patterns. For example, use your thumb to make big circles and your pinky to make tiny dots. What kind of picture can you create using all your fingers?
Finger Observation Game: Look at your hands and find each finger. Can you wiggle just your thumb? How about your ring finger? Try to move each finger one at a time. Now, look around your home or classroom. What can you do with each finger? Can you point to something with your pointer finger or pick up a small object with your thumb and pinky?
