What are your legs?

Your legs are like strong sticks that help you move from one place to another, just like when you walk or run.

What do your legs look like?

Imagine a tree with long branches, those branches are kind of like your legs. You have two of them, and they’re attached to your body at the bottom, near your hips, which is like the middle part of your body between your stomach and your knees.

How do your legs help you move?

When you want to walk or run, your legs work together with your feet, like how you use your hands to push a toy car. Your legs bend and straighten, helping you jump, run, and even climb stairs, just like when you go up the slide at the park.

Your legs are made of bones, muscles, and skin, all working together so you can move around and explore your world!
