I wanted to share a new #Holiday with you which falls on November 1st National Brush Day #NationalBrushDay would make a wonderful #Homeschool Lesson Plan as your children could study the correct way to brush there #teeth. Inside this post is my affiliate links if you click on the links and make a purchase I will make a small percentage from the items you purchase.
You could take your children on a #FieldTrip to the Dentist to check out there office. Then shopping for a new Toothbrush. You could make Cookies in the shape of 3-Piece Tooth Cookie Cutter Set, Stainless Steel Baking Essentials for Fun Cookies, Toothbrush + Toothpaste + Tooth Shapes, DIY Baked Cookie Cutter for Dentist Day Gifts and Birthday Party, Silver.
For music class you could research songs on #Brushing or listen to Brush Your Teeth | Kids Songs | Super Simple Songs and for #Reading you could read Brush, Brush, Brush! (Rookie Toddler) for Arth Class your students could color this Tooth and Toothbrush.
I have a question for you. Did you know eating sweets is the number one contributor to tooth decay? Especially after loading up on Sugary treats during Halloween, which means its time to remind your kids about the importance of taking care of their teeth!
Each year on November 1st, is National Brush Day helping children focus on children’s oral heath through facts about brushing, activities to make brushing fun, and tips to keep those teeth nice and healthy. Join us as were here to help you show your kids that brushing doesn’t have to be a chore!
National Brush Day Activities
- Ask your child to pick their favorite song and crank it up then dance along and make brushing on National Brush Day a party.
- Get back to the basics and review proper brushing form with your kids. Remind them to brush their gum line gently, and brush all the way to the back of their mouth. Finally, ensure they know to brush for a full two minutes! Don’t forget to brush your tongue as well.
- Create a chart for your family to track how well everyone is brushing and each day, have your child log how long they brushed their teeth. Then, come up with a reward for the family member that does the best.
Crazy Toothpaste Flavors
- Many people love to eat Bacon for breakfast, Mr. Bacon created a toothpaste for the days you don’t have time to make it.
- Chocolate toothpaste is actually safe for your teeth and even comes in a Candy-wrapper bottle. Wouldn’t that make a nice Stocking Stuffer for Christmas?
- If you’re bored of your toothpaste routine, take it to the next level with spicy Wasabi toothpaste. Which I will pass on. How about you?
Why People Love National Brush Day
Brushing is a tradition that your family can do together every day if you take the time to show your kids why brushing is important and do it as a team. There will be bonus points for flossing together too! Let’s get to brushing.
It’s important to brush for a full two minutes in order to keep our teeth healthy and there are a lot of ways to make brushing more fun and less boring. From watching a funny video or a tooth brushing dance distracting your kids while they’re brushing!
Did you know there are three main categories of toothbrush: manual, electric, and sonic. However, within these categories there are seemingly endless choices in color, size, and features! For example, some toothbrushes have a gum cleaner on the back of the brush head, while others even feature your kid’s favorite cartoon. Help your child get creative next time they pick out a toothbrush.
