Bathe regularly

Every time you take a bath, you are removing all germs, dirt and sweat from your body. Try not to let your child skip morning showers as humans sweat while sleeping.

Ideally, bathe them with the FOLLOW ME Anti-Bacterial Kids Head To Toe Wash that kills 99.9% bacteria, once in the morning, and another one at night.

Trim your nails

Appropriate hand hygiene includes diligently cleaning and trimming fingernails. The nails’ nook and crannies are the perfect spot for germs to grow. Ideally, trim your child’s nails once a week and encourage them to clean their nails every time they wash their hands with FOLLOW ME Anti-Bacterial Kids Hand Wash.

Wash your hands

Use a hand sanitizer

When soap and water aren’t available, use a hand sanitizer at school or during playtime.

Proper sneezing technique

Always remind them to wash their hands immediately with FOLLOW ME Anti-Bacterial Hand Wash after sneezing.
