Day 4: Head, Shoulders, Knees & Toes in Mandarin! 🧍

You’re building such a great vocabulary foundation! After family yesterday, today we’re learning about ourselves – specifically, Body Parts (身体部位 – shēntǐ bùwèi)! Knowing these words is super useful for describing people, actions (“wash hands” – 洗手 xǐ shǒu!), and even how you feel (“my tummy hurts” – 我肚子疼 wǒ dùzi téng).
