Children’s Health
Santa always worries about children and wishes them the best in health. During the cold and flu season it is most important to teach your children good hygiene but don’t stop there. This is a lifelong lesson that should not stop because the flu season is over.
Always wash hands before meals.
Wash hands after using the restroom.
When you have a cold, use your hand to cover your mouth when sneezing or coughing.
Use face tissue to wipe your nose.
Disinfect toys after they are handled by multiple children. (after a playdate, or an afternoon at the park)
These are not guaranteed to keep you healthy but it does cut down the risk of catching ill during the cold and flu season. When practicing these items with your children….set up a change jar and every time they complete one of the steps put a coin in the coin jar. If the parents are also taking part…..put a coin in every time they do them as well. Before you know it the whole family can go out and play a game of miniature golf or go to the movies.
