Let’s talk about FLOSSING!

November 29, 2021 1 min read

Alrighty, let’s talk about FLOSSING! And not the dance 😉 I’ll confess that I’m not a very cool mum and I still haven’t really mastered the art of that dance move… pretty sure my kids are better at it than I am! Anyway, I digress… back to flossing TEETH.

Did you know that as soon as teeth touch, there should be flossing happening? This normally happens around 2-3 years old. Brushing consistently is so imporant but even our helpful Brushies can’t get in between teeth. Did you know that when you don’t floss, you are missing 40 percent of your tooth surface? Flossing is essential but it can be tricky with kids! Here’s an activity that is easy and uses household items to help kids understand and practice flossing!

Using some blocks and playdough we showed that food can easily get stuck in between teeth and then practiced how to use the string (floss) to get the food out of the teeth. It was simple and effective and great practice!

Hope you give it a try! 😊
