Global Handwashing Day October 15

 Global Handwashing Day October 15

Global Handwashing Day is a campaign to motivate and mobilize millions around the world to wash their hands with soap. It takes place on October 15 of each year. The campaign is dedicated to raising awareness of handwashing with soap as a key approach to disease prevention.

Hand washing is the single most effective way to prevent the spread of infectious diseases, including the common cold, staph infections and the flu.

SIMPLE WAY TO TEACH KIDS HANDWASHING
WASH HANDS FOR 20 SECONDS (SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY TWICE TO TIME YOURSELF)

Combine water, soap and friction -- for as long as it takes to sing "Happy Birthday" twice, or at least 20 seconds and germs won't see their next birthday.

However, when soap and water are unavailable, alcohol-based hand sanitizer can be substituted.
