This Simple Bread Experiment Is a Genius Way to Get Kids to Wash Their Hands


Washing your hands is important. Really important. But how can you visually demonstrate the importance of this valuable life skill to kids?
As teacher Dayna Robertson from Discovery Elementary School in Idaho Falls recently showed on social media, all you need are a few slices of bread.
Together with co-worker and behavioural specialist Jaralee Metcalf, Robertson conducted this classic classroom activity with their students: they got the kids with various levels of hand cleanliness to touch pieces of plain white bread taken from the same loaf on the same day.
Then, they sealed the bread in individual plastic bags to see what would happen one month later.
