Personal hygiene child protocol
Hygiene standards to maintain proper hygiene is an important foundation in the education of our children or children in our care. Good manners are to be not only correct in all areas but also to maintain a good presence.
The custom is that we must instill the shower (better than the bathroom), but if they are very small we can begin to teach their baths and know what parts of your body that need more attention. The head, underarms, neck, genital area, knees and feet are the parts most likely to suffer the effects of sweating, but it should soaping your whole body.
Before showering must be taught to prepare the clothes, towel and all the elements needed to be fixed after the bath. We must also worry about teaching them to dry thoroughly after exiting the water and going over some points that may be more delicate, like cleaning your nails and ears (ears).
After showering, we must also teach them to leave the bathroom clean, dirty clothes placed in their proper place (the laundry basket or washing machine itself) and leave it all more or less as it was.
Personal hygiene not only covers the shower but we worry about other aspects.
Oral hygiene is very important on two levels: aesthetic effects and health effects. Keep a clean mouth is to avoid problems of tooth decay, tartar and other future problems in the mouth. Get used to brush your teeth after every meal, and teach them to do so properly. In the case of not knowing how to do what is best to consult with our dentist for him to give us guidelines to follow. It is advisable to visit the dentist at least once a year to review the status of your teeth.
We can give a few more rules to maintain good personal hygiene and kept clean and neat show:
Guidelines for proper hygiene
- Before eating, we wash our hands forever.
- After every meal, brush your teeth.
- Always keep your nails clean and in perfect condition. No nail-biting, it is very ugly and spoil. Ditto for the leather and flakes by the fingers or hands. No bite.

- The same goes for footwear, which must be clean.
- After sports or moderate physical activity, try to shower the child to eliminate odors and sweat.
