It is used for gripping. If you had a trunk, what would you do with it?&#8221;<br \/>\\(\\space\\)<\/li><li>Defining a &#8220;power&#8221;: The parent and child choose one quality that the child likes or needs (for example: &#8220;I want to be the tallest&#8221; or &#8220;I want to be brave&#8221;).<br \/>\\(\\space\\)<br \/>Choosing the parts: Based on the quality, the child chooses three different body parts from the cards.<br \/>Example: If the child wants to be brave and tall, they will choose the lion&#8217;s mane (courage) and the giraffe&#8217;s neck (height).<br \/>\\(\\space\\)<br \/>Assembly: The parent assists the child in pasting the three chosen body parts onto a blank drawing page (the child can draw a basic body).
