penguins washing hands

Water day

This week we made purple and blue raspberry soap. The next day we showed the importance of how to wash our hands and why, and how to save water when washing hands. We rubbed in the soap and rinsed it out with water. Everyone had their turn to wash their hands using our soap that we made, the washed away all the yucky germs on their hands.

Everyone had a fun, clean and learning week.
