How to Wash Hands the Right Way
We all know the importance of washing hands before preparing food or eating. But did you know the right way of washing hands? Sing “Happy Birthday” or another short song for at least 15 seconds…….no kidding! Swedish Medical Center in Seattle points out that we have to rub our hands together, scrubbing the tops and bottoms of hands, wrists and even under our fingernails for at least 15 seconds.
But what worried me was when my daughter’s studying at primary school, she didn’t get any chance to wash her hands before eating her morning tea and lunch. All students were asked to sit on the ground until they finished their meals. I could imagine how dirty my daughter’s hands were. To solve the problem, I gave her a few packets of hand sanitizer like these. Hopefully she would use them. The wipes are also perfect for shopping carts, restaurant high chairs (that are always really dirty too). Get more info about hand sanitizers here if you’d like.
