Body Parts Cut and Paste Worksheet for Preschoolers

How to use this worksheet

Start by looking at the body diagram together and talking briefly about what's inside our bodies that we can't see, like the heart that pumps blood or the lungs that help us breathe. Help your child cut out each organ picture from the bottom of the page, naming it aloud as they cut. One at a time, ask your child to decide where that organ belongs on the body diagram before applying glue and pressing it into place. Continue until every organ has been placed, then review the finished diagram together, pointing to each organ and saying its name and job.
