Brushing the Teeth can be Fun

How do children learn to-day point, click, drag, cut and paste.

So I m brushing my teeth with a battery-charged toothbrush which, by the way, I credit with improving the quality of the tissues around my back teeth when I had this thought

Many children dislike the dental hygiene process and sometimes will even use techniques of subterfuge in order to skirt the practise of cleaning the teeth but not forget to wash and cleanse their hands!!!

So, in accordance with my prime law of learning If it ain t fun; It ain t done I ve devised a pleasurable image for children to take on board so as to enhance the life and prosperity of those most important appendages the teeth

This image-creating device requires a battery powered toothbrush, a bit of learning through imitation and a modicum of fun.

Present the toothbrush and paste as a computer and instruct the children to:

Cut some toothpaste

Paste it on to the brush

Point to our teeth

Click on the brush and

Drag the brush over the teeth, one at a time.

Ps. I like to put the hard bristles under the hot water to soften slightly before I brush.

Children love theatre be a show person when communicating with them and have fun - a bit of humour goes a long way in instruction giving.

All the best with your teeth
