• Take a shower- teach that bathing not only makes us feel refreshed but also helps in getting rid of bacteria.• Don't touch your face- this is a little difficult to practice as everyone subconsciously tends to touch their face but explain to them that hands have invisible germs that may get transferred on the face if touched.
• Wearing a face mask- this might feel irritating to the kids but teach them its necessity. If you let them choose their creative masks, they will wear it willingly.
