In an effort to eliminate childhood lead poisoning and reduce the spread of illnesses, the Lead and Healthy Homes Program has a fun and educational hand washing curriculum for students ages 3-8.

​

With the help of mascot Rinsey the Raccoon, the 30 minute curriculum includes:

​

• An interactive story book on the 5-steps of hand washing (soap and water, bubbles, 20 second rule, rinse, and dry)

• A sing along as students pretend to wash their hands for the appropriate amount of time

• An interactive activity where students must help Rinsey wash his hands the right way by putting the steps in order

• At the end of the program, students will receive an activity book with stickers to take home.

• Teachers will receive free posters to place in bathrooms with Rinsey reminding students of the 5-steps.

​

​

 

Wash Your Hands With Rinsey is a program funded by the New Jersey Department of Health created to help children learn proper hand washing techniques while educating them on the importance of washing.
