I Am A Booger...Treat Me With Respect!

We had a long talk about hygiene....Boogers especially. This post might not be for parents with weak stomachs. Anyway, we talked about the importants of boogers and what to do when its time to discard of them. The most important thing of the whole lesson is to never, ever eat your boogies....that make you and everyone else sick. This information was all in the book we read "I Am A Booger...Treat Me With Respect". There is a picture of us with the book and making a 'boogie ghost'. Ask the kids about this. Hehehe.

 

Germs

This week we talked about germs. When we wash our hands at school we get two pumps of soap. Then, we rub the soap all over our hands while singing the ABC's. When we get to Z, we turn the water on and rinse. Last, we pull the paper towel handle three times for just enough paper towel and wipe our hands dry. Ta-Da!

I am a BOOGER...treat me with RESPECT!

This is a great book to read when you have nose pickers and booger eaters. (sorry if that's too straight forward) It basically states that a boogers job is to help trap the dirt and germs in your nose when we breathe in dirty air. They help to keep you healthy. They don't want you to pick them with your fingers, flick them, or NEVER EVER EAT THEM!  The boogers demand to be respected!

This is a booger ghost! Ask the kids about it...ha ha! You have to make a "booger ghost" to get the boogies out of your nose. Why? because boogers are filled with dirt and germs and you cant touch them with just a finger because the germs will get all over your hands!

The story must have really made an impact on the morning class.  Just about everyone...except two, needed a tissue.  The all got a tissue and got in line to go home. Too funny!
