Food Chain

Germs are invisible organisms.

They can be bacteria, viruses, or fungi. Some germs are bad… some are good.

Germs live EVERYWHERE. Remember, some are good, and some are bad… We want to keep our good germs and get rid of the bad germs…

How do we get rid of the bad germs???

*After we cough or sneeze.

*Before we eat meals, or help cook food.

*After we play outside.

*After we use the bathroom.

*When there is anything visible on our hands!

*After we play with our pets.

•Warm Water

•Antibacterial Soap

•Paper towels/Towels

•A fun song to sing for 20-30 seconds!

-If your happy and you know it, wash your hands! -If your happy and you know it, wash your hands! -If your happy and you know, then your face will surely show it… -If your happy and you know it, wash your hands!

Wash, wash, wash your handsPlay our handy game.Rub and scrub, and scrub and rub.Germs go down the drain.  HEY!Wash, wash, wash your handsPlay our handy game.Rub and scrub, and scrub and rub.Dirt goes down the drain.  HEY!

Remember, you need to scrub your hands!

Water is not magic…

Use your soap and scrub!

(Do not forget your fingernails have a LOT of bacteria!)

Instant hand sanitizer is a good substitute for soap

and water if you are not near a bathroom!

Pets tongues are NOT good substitutes for

soap and water! (yes… that is a

camel!)

Put your hand up like a karate chop…Make your other hand like another karate chop, but the other direction…

THIS IS THE “T-ZONE”

This is how germs get into our bodies. We should NOT touch the T-Zone!!

If you need to cough or sneeze… Use your elbow!

Germs are everywhere!

We wash to keep ourselves from getting

sick.

Warm water, soap, and rubbing is key!

When in doubt,

WASH YOUR

HANDS!!!
