How can I teach my child proper handwashing techniques?
1. Have your child wet their hands with warm water.
2. Have them apply a small amount of hand soap.
3. Have them scrub their hands together for at least 20 seconds, making sure to pay attention to the back of their hands, between their fingers, and around their fingernails.
4. Rinse their hands with warm water and then dry them with a clean towel or air dryer.
5. Remind them to wash their hands after using the bathroom, before eating, and after playing outside.
