PREVENT COLDS AND THE FLU WITH KID-FRIENDLY TEACHING TOOLS Stop the Spread
School is back in session, but your child may be bringing home more than just random facts. Germs and bacteria that spread the common cold and flu are most prevalent in schools, but while these illnesses are strong, prevention is simple.

Kids learn more by watching what you do rather than listening to what you tell them to do. Get in the habit of covering your nose and mouth when you cough or sneeze, and then wash your hands. Make hand sanitizer and facial tissues readily available in your home and be sure to wash your hands before every meal. In addition, stick to healthy habits when you do feel sick. Drink fluids, get plenty of rest, and seek medical attention when it’s warranted. If your children see you taking care of yourself, they will be more likely to do the same for themselves in the future. Ahh ... Ahh ... ACHOO! Hand washing and nose blowing are about as fun as … well, just that. It’s no wonder children don’t want to take time out of their busy play schedules to combat nasty germs.

Since the first time I met in his office to present the case to him, he gave the case his full attention. Even being busy with other clients, he made sure to contact me with updates from the judge and the prosecutor.” –Kevin “Matt and his team helped us work through an issue with the juvenile justice system and delivered a favorable result considering the circumstances. He followed through and set realistic expectations and kept us informed throughout the whole process. I would not hesitate to recommend Matt’s services.” –Lo S.

(According to research, sneezes can travel anywhere from 19–26 feet at 100 miles per hour!) For crafty kids, let them decorate tissue boxes or hand sanitizer containers to give hygiene some flair. Soon enough, you’ll find them being smarter about their health. As kids pack into classrooms this fall, germs will fly faster than this past summer did.
