Your Five Senses

You have five senses that tell you about the world around you. Your eyes see, your ears hear, your nose smells, your tongue tastes, and your skin feels.

In the picture

The boy is holding the daisy close to his nose. He is using his sense of smell.
He can also see the white petals and feel the smooth stem in his hand.
Your five senses are sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch.

Examples

You use your ears to hear a butterfly’s wings, and your tongue to taste an apple.
Close your eyes and try to guess a smell. Your nose works without your eyes.
