Product Description
Sneezes, coughs, runny noses, spills, and messes are facts of everyday life with children. And thats why its never too soon to teach little ones about germs and ways to stay clean and healthy. This book is a short course for kids on what germs are, what they do, and why its so important to cover them up, block them from spreading, and wash them down the drain. Simple words complement warm, inviting, full-color illustrations that show real-life situations kids can relate to. A special section for adults includes ideas for discussion and activities.

 Hitting Hands October 6, 2008
C. Falcone (Seattle, WA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this book for my 22 month old who has learned that hitting is an "effective" way to get his big brother's attention. My son is fascinated with this book and obviously gets the message. We have a few other books from this series and love them.
 nice book and good tips at back September 21, 2008
dr. mama (NC USA)
we like another book in this series, Germs Are Not For Sharing (no, i'm not a germ-phobe, my 2yo just liked the illustrations), and this one is great, too. I like the tips at the back for cooling off when angry. The trick of asking, "what are hands for? how about waving?" has worked every time (so far) that i've used it. keeps my 2yo from hitting her 8mo sister!
Good repetition June 13, 2008
M. Tillman (Memphis, TN USA)
Repetition is a good tool for teaching kids to remember important lessons. This book does a good job of repeating that hands are not for hitting, and also suggests what hands ARE good for (holding hands to cross the street, etc.). My 4 year old loves this series of books and we refer to the text often in conversation with her to remind her of the important lessons.
Thank you! May 18, 2008

We have to read it frequently but it helps my toddler to address her feelings and her frustrations without hitting.
good book for generating dialog January 19, 2008
K. Maly (Washington DC)
I saw this book recently featured in an article in a print periodical about child development
We've recently had minor problems with our 4-year old son acting out after preschool on days when he had been picked on by other kids. We got the book and used it is a bedtime story. It generated good dialogue (as good as you get with a 4-year old) and it made him think before he acted. It gave him some tools to use with the more physical kids so he resolves the problem in the moment without resorting to aggression. Wthat he doesn't have to resort to acting out to make the behavior stop. I am glad that I purchased this book.
We bought also 'Words Are Not for Hurting' and that one was not as useful for generating dialog.
