十根头发 10 hairs

Reading a bit of ’10 times 10′ book today by Henre Tullet.  Great to revise our body parts, but a cool way to hear those different measure words!  Below are a list of the measure words used for the parts of the body in this segment of the book.  Click on our Ten Little Friends song, and see if you can substitute counting the body parts in the song instead of friends!  Don’t forget to change the measure word 个 (ge) in the song to the appropriate measure word for the body part that you are counting 🙂  If you need to learn face parts first you can use this face song to help you, the blog link has the words and video for you 🙂
