At the beginning of September representatives from Child Smile came in and talked to us about cleaning our teeth. It was  surprising how much sugar is in perfectly healthy foods !  We spooned sugar into a puppets  mouth and we watched it get fatter and fatter. We learnt that fruit smoothies are really bad for your teeth and fruit juice is also bad. We found out that you are only supposed to have a maximum 5 teaspoons of sugar in a day but we should try to avoid it if we can.  Now we all clean our teeth in the afternoon after our lunchbreak to keep our teeth clean.
