MY HYGIENE

DURATION: 30 mins

OUTCOME: Deepen understanding about what hygiene is and ways in which we can practice good hygiene everyday.

RATIONALE: Practising good hygiene skills such as showering regularly, washing hands, cleaning nails, washing hair and wearing deodorant can make your child feel more confident as well as having having obvious health benefits. The incidence of hygiene related illness is more prevalent in children as they learn to take care of themselves. Primary school aged children are exposed to germs more frequently than at any other stage of their schooling. It is imperative that children understand correct hygiene procedures to minimise health risks.

KEY MESSAGES:

• We should wash our hands before we eat.

• We should wash our hands after going to the bathroom.

• Looking after our teeth is very important for our health.

• Playing and getting dirty is fun but looking neat and being clean when we need to is also important.

• Being clean makes us all feel good.
