Handwashing Song

The winter months can be rough for cold and flu season.

Although a great skill, learning to properly wash your hands can be difficult for young children to learn. Try singing this hand washing song to help teach them how it’s done!

They scrub with soap during the first two lines, making sure to get all over their hands.

(To the Tune of “Are you Sleeping” / “Frere Jacques”)

Tops and bottoms, tops and bottoms

In between, in between

Rinse them off with water, rinse them off with water

Now they're clean. Now they’re clean

Our new Abderdeen Tiny Library is our first library to use RFID technology.
