Cleanliness is next to Godliness
We all know that cleanliness is next to godliness, do children understand the importance of this phrase? This is a big question which needs to be properly answered. The age that the kids and teens belong hardly makes them take anything seriously, and hence they never listen to their parents when the parents tell them to wash their hands properly before eating. Parents should keep telling them repeatedly to wash hands as hygiene is really very important to stay fit and well. If the children don’t listen to their parents, the parents should try to cite reasons for washing hands. This is however not limited to students as Parents should show them the way by doing what they preach.
Children must know that washing hands is the best way by far to prevent kids from falling sick. Washing hands will help in preventing germs entering the body and spreading through. Children must know how not washing hands properly before eating will lead germs like bacteria and viruses enter the body and affect the young system. These germs can be transmitted in many ways for example through touching dirty hands, coughing, sneezing, water and food which are contaminated. Kids become easily affected when they touch their eyes, mouth or nose if they pick germs from any sources. And it often happens that when someone in the house is sick, then slowly the whole house will have that same illness. Not just common cold but also other infectious diseases like meningitis, influenza, bronchitis, hepatitis A and all types of diarrhea can be caused if kids don’t wash their hands properly. Some proper methods should be used for washing hands.
