Health Week at Seth M.R. Jaipuria School

“He who has health has hope, and he who has hope has everything.”

Our adorable munchkins from the Nursery school at Seth M.R. Jaipuria are always blossoming and absorbing knowledge through enjoyable activities. Embracing this ethos, we recently embarked on a vibrant Health Week celebration. Across three engaging activities, each day our little ones discovered a fresh healthy habit to incorporate into their lives.

On the first day, our cute little ones embarked on an exciting adventure to “clean their gummies.” In this delightful activity, they were guided in the art of brushing their teeth to ensure their radiant smiles shine the brightest. The day began with enchanting tales that conveyed the significance of dental hygiene, setting the stage for sparkling pearly whites.

Later, the teacher showed them a Typodent Jaw, a fascinating model of the human mouth. First, the teacher demonstrated proper brushing techniques, showcasing the correct motions and angles. Then, it was time for our tiny tots to take the reins. With gentle guidance from our teachers, they practiced brushing on the models, learning to move the brush in the right direction for optimal dental care.

On the second day, Our shining stars learned how to wash their hands properly and through a fun activity, they got to see how soap effectively removes all germs, once we wash our hands with it. Our teacher showed them Five Steps to Wash Your Hands the Right Way. After that our young minds moved to an activity set up, where children immersed their soapy fingers in water mingled with crayon shavings, observing as the shavings resisted their touch, demonstrating the efficacy of soap in eliminating germs. This hands-on experience vividly illustrated the importance of proper hand hygiene, fostering a deeper understanding among the young learners.

On the final day, they delved into the realm of nutritious eating habits. Initially, they explored the myriad benefits of consuming healthy foods, followed by a detailed discussion on the adverse effects of unhealthy eating on our bodies. Armed with this knowledge, they engaged in a sorting game, neatly categorizing junk food into one container and nutritious food into another.
