View Lesson

This lesson plan focuses on teaching toddlers about the importance of oral hygiene, specifically the practice of brushing their teeth. The session begins with an engaging story that introduces dental health, followed by a discussion on healthy habits related to teeth. A demonstration showcases proper tooth brushing techniques, allowing children to practice using mirrors and toothbrushes. Participants engage in a hands-on activity where they brush their teeth while singing a fun song, reinforcing the skills learned. After rinsing and sharing their experiences, children create crafts themed around tooth brushing, enhancing their understanding of the topic. The session concludes with a review of key concepts and encourages children to share their new knowledge with their families. Throughout the lesson, there are opportunities for observation and support to ensure all children grasp the importance of maintaining good dental hygiene. Follow-up activities include sending home a tooth brushing chart to promote the habit at home.
