As part of our health unit we brought the "baby care" equipment outside today and gave our babies a warm bubble bath in the sun. We talked about keeping clean, and washing hands/bodies to keep ourselves healthy and strong. Germs are tricky little buggers and especially like to hang out on our hands- and since we can't see them with our eyes, we have to wash our hands often to make sure to get those germs off! We talked about all of the times during the day when we should be washing our hands.
We also talked about junk food this morning and each child told what he or she had for breakfast after we read the book, "The Barenstain Bears And Too Much Junk Food!" It sounds like most of the children are getting a pretty healthy breakfast each morning! We are happy to hear the variety of foods eaten and hope it continues! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day :)
