Healthy Habits Matter; When It Comes To Your Child

Teach them hygiene: 

“Washy washy- healthy healthy” using sing such funny words and sentences will grab your child’s attention and they themselves will learn the healthy and hygienic habit if washing hands.

Washing hands often will control communicable diseases. Washing hands properly with soap after using the bathroom and before and after every meal is mandatory to avoid germs entering the body and also to stay hygienic. This habit will stay with your child through out his/ her life if taught appropriately at an early age.
