Stage One: Healthy Habits Activity Plan

Practical Activities


Clean our teeth Song:

You can either sing the traditional song, 'This is the way we clean our teeth, clean our teeth, clean our teeth. This is the way we clean our teeth, early in the morning' or you can adapt the lyrics slightly:

“We always clean our teeth, clean our teeth, clean our teeth. We always clean our teeth, every day.”

If you would rather the children learnt these actions using the Present Continuous, adapt the song lyrics accordingly. For example:

“I am cleaning my teeth, cleaning my teeth, cleaning my teeth. I am cleaning my teeth. Look at me.”

Using Movement:

As the children become familiar with the song, add the appropriate actions.
