can remember jambe. Just put a 'be' after it.
For rein (kidney), imagine your kidneys
getting wet in the rain.
Your right hand looks like the State

If you have a lot of courage, you
have a good heart (coeur for courage).
A pediatrist is a foot doctor. Pediatrist
sounds like pied for foot.
Hips look like you have hunches on
your sides. Hanche = hunch = hip.
Your wrist is obviously connected
to your hand and your hand is connected to your fingers. You point with your
fingers. This might help you remember poignet.
