BRUSH!

You hear ALL THE TIME from grownups that you have to wash your hands. But why? It’s because when you ride the school bus, play on the play on the playground, and go to the bathroom, you could be touching BACTERIA. Bacteria are tiny creatures that you can’t see … but bad bacteria -- called PATHOGENS -- can make you sick.  


Washing your hands is how you beat bad bacteria. But in case you forget, here’s a little song to help you remember.


First though switch your brushing to the other side of the top of your mouth. And make sure to make those brushing circles on the inside, outside and chewing side of EACH TOOTH!


(SONG -- sneak intro under brushing instructions)


Wash your hands

Wash your hands

Before you eat 

And after you pee


Wash your hands

Wash your hands

Tell bad bacteria 

It don’t stand a chance


Before you eat

After you pee

Tell those pathogens

“Get off of me creep!”


Wash your hands 

Wash your hands

And it 

Goes without saying

Wash ‘em 

After you poop!


(instrumental bridge - brushing instructions)

Wash your hands

Before you eat 

And after you pee


And guess what! Brushing your teeth ALSO helps fight bad bacteria!  You’re all done -- but don’t forget to
