For years I didn’t think much about germs. The, more and more information started coming out about all of the different places germs hide that we don’t think about. Germs are on pocketbooks, shopping cart handles, car doors, keyboards, computer mice – you name it, there’s a good chance there are some germs on it. A new school year is upon us. Sickness always seems to happen more during the school year, probably because all of the kids are exposed to all of the germs and then spread it to each other. In an effort to educate children (and parents too) about the importance of preventing the spread of germs, Wet Ones Antibacterial Wipes has teamed up with Bill Nye The Science guy to create the Wet Ones Healthy Hands Zone.
In the Wet Ones Healthy Hands Zone, you can actually see how bacteria hides in all kinds of places, and how it can get on hands and spread those germs that cause illnesses like colds and flu! Watch the videos of experiments with Bill Nye the Science Guy®, then get scientific and try them at home too!
The site has a list of 99 Reasons for Wet Ones Wipes that I thought was cool, it contains lots of places you might not even think about finding germs at.
While on the site, be sure to enter the Wet Ones Give Your School A Hand Sweepstakes. Five winners will each receive a $75 Scholastic Gift Card for books, games and toys, and a $25 Variety Bundle of Wet Ones® Antibacterial Hand Wipes, as well as a $250 Scholastic Book Library and a $100 Variety Bundle of Wet Ones Antibacterial Hand Wipes or their school. Another 99 winners will receive Wet Ones Wipes.
