Science week in Nursery

As part of Science week this week Nursery had a lesson on germs and hand washing. We talked about how germs can make you poorly, but that you can get rid of them by washing your hands carefully. To explore this idea Mrs Cooper put some green bioglitter on the children's hands pretending to be germs. The children then held hands with a friend and touched some toys and we noticed that the glitter germs spread. We tried to wipe off the germs with a paper towel but that didn't work and so we went to wash our hands using soap and water. We sang our Wash your hands song as we did so to make sure we were cleaning all over our hands properly and all the 'germs' were washed away!
