This is the way we wash our hands...

(Did you know you can sing "This is the way we wash our hands" to the tune of "Here we go 'round the mulberry bush" as a way to support understanding and use of language related to this routine? Music makes hand washing more fun, and kids hear the vocabulary they need repeated many times! It might go something like this:
This is the way we wash our hands,
Wash our hands, wash our hands;
This is the way we wash our hands,
Getting ready for lunch!)

All this to say, cold and flu season is here, and so I am posting my yearly reminder about preventing the spread of germs.  While I do sanitize the materials I use during speech sessions as much as is practical and possible, the best thing to do is for everyone to wash their hands.  

Please help, ask, or remind your child to wash their hands with soap immediately before seeing me.

As always, there is no charge if you need to cancel a session due to illness, so please use the same criteria you would when deciding whether or not to send your child to school, when deciding whether to keep an appointment with me.

Thank-you!
