Active Apple Man wanted to talk to us about 2 very important things today……
- ORAL HEALTH
As well as being super active this week, it’s also a week to learn about and revisit what we need to do to keep ourselves healthy. While we are in the ECC, a team called Childsmile usually come in and show us how to look after our teeth. They show us how to brush properly and why it’s important to do so. The link below is great for supporting tooth brushing from birth all the way through to age 12.

Although we are not in the ECC just now it’s still super important to keep brushing your teeth. In my house the challenge is always to make sure Cole and Halle brush for as long as they are supposed to! We use songs to help with this. Here is our favourite one at the minute ……
2. HAND WASHING
Hand washing is more important than ever just now. Rena has found a poster and another fab song you can sing at home to help you wash away your germs the best you can.
And this one I thought was just rather catchy 🙂
So remember everybody, to stay healthy we need to keep our bodies healthy too, so plenty of hand washing and remember to brush your teeth at least 2 times a day.
