Washing your hands, brushing your teeth, keeping your bed clean, crossing the street safely, and taking baths are all important ways to stay healthy and happy. Let’s keep learning and having fun!
Germ Detective: Become a germ detective at home! With the help of an adult, use a magnifying glass to look at different surfaces like doorknobs, tables, and toys. Discuss where germs might be hiding and why it’s important to clean these areas. Can you find any spots that need cleaning?
Handwashing Song: Create a fun handwashing song with your friends or family. Use the steps of washing hands as lyrics and sing it every time you wash your hands. This will help you remember all the steps and make handwashing fun!
Traffic Light Game: Play a traffic light game with your friends. One person is the “traffic light” and calls out “red light” or “green light.” When “red light” is called, everyone must stop. When “green light” is called, everyone can move. This helps practice stopping and going safely, just like crossing the street.
