What our experts think
Let’s Wash Hands, part of the Big Steps book series provides an interactive way to introduce children to important skills in hygiene and self-care. The dials and flaps of the book are great for capturing children’s curiosity and help them to develop important finger control and dexterity.
Washing hands is an important component of hygiene and the theme helps to start conversations and allows children to grow confidence in taking responsibility for their own self-care activities. The book makes this fun by encouraging children to sing while the characters wash their hands and repeat related hygiene words. This helps to develop their language skills and vocabulary too.
