🧼 Kids Health Tip: Wash Those Hands!

One of the simplest ways to help prevent illness is proper handwashing.

Teach kids to wash their hands:
✔️ Before eating
✔️ After using the restroom
✔️ After coughing or sneezing
✔️ After playing outside

A good rule of thumb? Scrub with soap and water for at least 20 seconds—about the time it takes to sing “Happy Birthday” twice! 🎂

Healthy habits start young. 💙

🩺 FAQ: What’s Considered High Blood Pressure?

Generally:
✔️ Normal: Less than 120/80
✔️ Elevated: 120–129 / Less than 80
✔️ High Blood Pressure (Hypertension): 130/80 or higher
