Animated Character Help

Okay, now that the animation is done and turned in, 2046's animation team is already looking for a new project. We've decided to create a basic, Rayman-esque character for future animations that we can improve on as the team gets better. The modeling is done, but I'm not sure how to attach the hands, feet, and head to the body while still being able to move and bend them. Our character has no limbs, so the pieces are floating and I want to move them around the body while still being attached.

Would it be easier to just pose the individual pieces? I'm not really sure, so could someone point me in the right direction?
