Handwashing is the simplest, most effective thing we can do to reduce the spread of colds, flu, diarrhea and sometimes even serious or life-threatening diseases. We carry millions of microbes on our hands. Most are harmless, but you can pick up some that cause illnesses, such as colds, flu and diarrhea. When we forget to wash our hands, or don't wash them properly, we can spread these germs to other people, or give them to ourselves by touching our eyes, mouths, noses or cuts on our bodies.

Today, in our final session of Go, Glow, Grow at Candor Head Start, children learned about the importance of handwashing, the correct way to do it, and even got to see how well they washed their hands. It was a fun way to wrap up the series!
