Healthy Teeth



April is Dental Health month so naturally we had to get involved in this occasion. 
We've been practicing flossing with large lego blocks and germ bugs (also known as black playdoh). 
A great way to practice the technique of flossing. Try it at home! 




Egg-speriment ... get it?? :) 

The outer shell of a boiled egg is very similar to our teeth. We discussed how eating/drinking too much sugar could cause germ bugs to destroy our teeth. We decided to check out the germ bugs in action. We placed a boiled egg in pepsi and a boiled egg in water for a day. The pepsi egg turned really brown and the egg in the water stayed white. We brushed the dirty pepsi egg and got some of the brown germs off but not all of it! 
We learned we should limit the amount of sugar we eat/drink.
