“Our Happiness Foundation” organized a cleanliness awareness program for small kids in labor camp.
Cleanliness is the first law of health. The habit to stay clean and keeping the surrounding clean should be inculcated in children from early age.
So, we taught the children to keep themselves and their surroundings clean so that they would not fall ill. The best way to teach them was to make them aware of the benefits and practices like
- Wash your hands before eating and after toilet.
- Keep house garbage in a bag.
- Don’t litter.
- Keep your body clean.
- Drink clean water.
We also made them aware of good touch and bad touch which is a need of the hour. This will help them to understand the actual intentions of other person. We taught them that good touch will be pleasant and the bad touch will hurt you. Immediately ask your mother for help whenever you feel that it was a bad touch.
Making kids aware of this can reduce the chances of child abuse.
