Narrator: Our hygiene is how clean we keep our body. Good hygiene keeps us healthy and makes other people comfortable around us. If we don’t have good hygiene, we can get sick and make other people feel uncomfortable around us. If we don’t have a clean smell or we look dirty, people may not want to be around us. We need to have good hygiene every day.
When we wake up in the morning, there are a few things we should do to get ready. Every day, we should think “How’s my hygiene?” (How’s my hygiene icon appears.) Every morning, we should wash our hands with soap.

Narrator: Some people also like to shower in the morning and some do it at night. Pick one time a day that’s best for you to take a shower. We need to do all of these things every day — not just some days. When we are clean and have good hygiene, people feel comfortable and want to be around us. Hygiene also keeps us healthy. So remember, every day before we go to school, we should think “How’s my hygiene?” (How’s my hygiene icon appears.)
