Teach kids to wash their hands.
Washing hands is a basic skill for kids to master, and also one of the best effective way to prevent germs that may cause illness and keep our kids from getting sick. As a parent, we can help our kids cultivate a good habit of washing hands through our words and deeds.

Teach kids to brush their teeth.
More than 40% of children have cavities by the time they enter kindergarten, teeth decay is still the biggest health issue affecting their daily life. As the saying goes, monkey see, monkey do. Keep a family brushing schedule and make it a habit to avoid teeth decay and improve their oral health.
