How do I wash my hands for kids?

Published in Hygiene for Kids 1 min read

Washing your hands properly is super important to stay healthy! Here's how to do it right:

  1. Wet your hands: Turn on the water and wet your hands all over.

  2. Soap it up: Put soap on your hands and rub them together to make lots of bubbles!

  3. Scrub, scrub, scrub! Make sure you scrub everywhere for at least 20 seconds – that's about the time it takes to sing "Happy Birthday" twice! Don't forget:

    • Between your fingers
    • The backs of your hands
    • Under your fingernails
    • Your thumbs (people often forget these!)
    • Your knuckles
  4. Rinse them clean: Rinse all the soap off your hands under the running water.

  5. Dry them well: Use a clean towel to dry your hands completely. You can also use a hand dryer if there's one.

That's it! Now you have super clean hands!
