Washing Your Hands
Washing your hands is really important!
You use your hands all day long, so they can pick up germs that might make you or other people feel poorly.
When should I wash my hands?
- After going to the toilet
- Before eating
- After playing with a pet
- Before helping to make food
How should I wash them?
Wash your hands with warm water and soap for at least 20 seconds. Make sure you clean all parts of your hands, then dry them properly.

- Have a dance off with your friends
- Get out on your bike – encourage your family to go out on a family bike ride

Flu is a nasty little bug that can give you a bad temperature, bad coughs and bad sneezes.
To prevent flu you should:
- Catch it - Catch coughs and sneezes with a tissue.
- Bin it - Put your tissue in a bin.
- Kill it - Wash your hands to stop any bugs from spreading.
You can fight the flu for a whole year, by having the flu nasal spray. There are no needles just a quick spray up each of your nostrils. It may tickle a little! And your eyes might water for a short time. If you can't have the flu spray there is another way you can fight the Flu.
