Avoiding Germs | Things You Didn't Tell Your Kids

0:00 hi guys i know a lot of you are extremely concerned about all the germs and all the viruses that are in the air and as parents collect constantly sneaking hand sanitizers into our kids bags and making sure that they're constantly using that but i've just learned something and i thought it was really important to share one is when you pick a hand sanitizer make sure that it has more than 60 alcohol that's the only one that is actually going to kill the germs

0:32 right so that is very very important just picking up anything that smells good feels good is not going to do the job of killing germs or avoiding drugs like i would rightly say so make sure that you pick something that has more than 60 second thing which i learned is that your kids are so excited to constantly keep using the sanitizer we brewed it into them they're they're carrying it everywhere and you know you're extremely paranoid and all that but the key is

1:00 that you actually take the sanitizer you put it on your palm okay and then you need to not make sure that they rub it it needs to stay on your palms for 20 seconds and make sure that they don't do this like rub it off against their clothes or wipe it against a towel or any of that because if it's not stuck to your hands for 20 seconds then it's not going to do its job which is avoiding germs as far

1:28 as possible that's step number two step number three is we've traditionally always been taught that we need to cough like this or like take a tissue or take a napkin and then you know we hold on to that napkin the key is do the elbow cough or the elbow sneeze right which is or sneeze like this right because this way you're not passing on the germs on your hand to your eyes your nose or your mouth

1:57 which all have the mucous membranes beneath which is very important which is exactly where the golden cough passes down right so kids are not supposed to touch their eyes nose and mouth that's exactly where they can get infections very very easily likewise in adults so make sure that you're doing the elbow cough and the elbow sneeze tip number four is make sure that the kids are washing their hands that's the only one that's going to constantly do

2:28 the trick so 20 seconds is the rule they need to constantly wash wash their nails wash in between their fingers that is very very important and 20 seconds and wash it thoroughly like the rinse has to be thorough and the wash has to be thorough tip number five is make sure that you always when you sneeze or cough whatever tissue that you're using you chuck it off immediately if that tissue is going to rest somewhere it's going to do a

2:57 larger harm to people around us and it's not only in case of a flu or a cold or a cough but even like a bug or vomiting woman above any of that make sure that you dispose that off right away and tip number six is which something that i discovered which is this disinfectant spray that i found because a lot of the viruses stay on the surface of tables chairs clothes bags and all of that the disinfectant spray which is now

3:28 really hard to get in the market because obviously everybody's been honing on to it um helps kill 99 bacteria that are on surfaces i don't know how effective this one is but i've just about started trying because of all the scares but this could be a great way because if the bacteria and the virus are going to stay on surfaces then this one should definitely work so i am sure that this is going to really help all of you guys

3:55 the last one that i'm going to add in is make sure that you also understand what's the infection policy in school like how are they is disinfecting the school or the classes that your kids are actually going to so make sure you understand that and the other big concern is that when do you know uh you know to keep your kids back at school uh back from school and back at home so that's another big one if it's a

4:22 constant runny nose through like winter season or season change we understand that it's normal uh and and parents understand that and schools understand that but when you know it's a bug that's affected a lot of kids maybe it's the best time to keep your kids back and i hope this video has been as useful to you as it was for me because i learned all this along the way and it's tremendously helped keeping my family you know as healthy as possible also
