 1-2-3 Come Do Some Tooth Activities With Me!

I never know when to start posting dental hygiene activities.  I always did our tooth unit the last week of February, simply because there was so much else to cover at the beginning of the month: Groundhog Day, 100 Day, Valentine's Day, (We also visited a post office), as well as  President's Day.  Anyone else's brain out there spinning?dental hygiene activities, dental hygiene lessons, dental hygiene crafts, dental hygiene writing prompts, dental hygiene alphabet cards, alphabet activities, alphabet games,

"Everybody in this place, please put a smile on your face!"  is a just-for-fun poster that I designed.  I share it with my kiddos when I launch our dental hygiene activities.  Click on the link to grab the Smile Awhile FREEBIE.

My Y5's enjoyed our "Terrific Teeth" unit; I was always amazed that there was at least one child every year that had never visited a dentist!  Today's blog will feature some of my most popular dental hygiene activities.  Most of them are "print & go" to make it easy for you to toss a few tooth-themed activities into your busy day.

1-2-3 Come Do Some Dental Hygiene Activities With Me!

Since so many of you have been dealing with snow days, and were busy with Groundhog Day, 100 Day, Valentine's Day, (perhaps visiting a post office), and President's Day, (Did you study money?) as well as activities for the Winter Olympics, it's no wonder why there's only a few days left to cram in some dental hygiene activities, before we all launch into "stuff" for March is Reading Month. 

So that you don't have to,  I spent some time making fun dental hygiene things to possibly make life a little bit easier for you.  I hope it's not too late for you to use a few of these new FREEBIES with a tooth theme.  I'll be finishing up with the rest tomorrow.
