Let's Get Ready for Bed!
By Sean Ross and Megan Temple

I use my hands to eat a healthy snack! 
My hands help me brush my teeth!
With my hands, I wash my face!
With my fingers, I feel the warm water on my face.
I use my hands to grab my favorite bedtime book.
My hands and legs help me climb into bed.
With my eyes, I read the words on the pages.
I use my fingers to point to the pictures.
My hands help to turn the pages.
I lay my head down on my pillow. 
I pull the covers over my body with my hands.
I close my eyes.
