Life Skills & Value Education – CLASS-I – UNIT- 3 Be A Hygiene Champion

Hygiene means taking care of your body and keeping it neat and clean all the time. When we are neat and clean, germs cannot harm us and we do not fall sick or ill.

Germs are tiny creatures that we cannot see. They are present all around us. Dirt is their home.

Be careful! You must pay attention to your personal hygiene. Be a hygiene champion. Remember, when you touch your eyes, nose or mouth, the germs from your hands enter and spread into your body.

Teeth smart!

You must brush your teeth twice a day – in the morning before
breakfast and at night after dinner. Rinse your mouth after eating
candy or chocolates.

Maintaining good personal hygiene is very important to stay healthy and be strong.

A. How many teeth do you have?____________

Nail Smart!

Keep your nails clean. Ask your loved ones to pare your nails regularly. Germs love to live in dirty nails!

B. How many fingers do you have?____________
C. How many toes do you have?____________
D. How many nails do you have?____________

Sneezing Smart!

Always cover your sneeze or cough. Use a handkerchief or tissue to cover your nose or mouth when you sneeze. If you do not have a handkerchief, sneeze or cough into your elbow. It is a good habit.

Let’s Wash Our Hands!

Proper hand wash is the best way to keep germs away and not to fall sick. Use soap thoroughly and do not, forget to clean between the fingers, under your nails and the front and the back of your palms. Rinse with water and wipe with a clean and dry towel.

Remember, soaps and sanitizers are germs busters.

You should always wash your hands with soap:

• After going to the toilet.
• Before eating or serving food.
• When I come back from playing.
• After petting or touching an animal.

We wash our hands regularly to fight diseases.
