“Healthy teeth and hair reveal a person’s worth,” as the saying goes. Taking care of personal hygiene for children, especially preschoolers, is always a top concern for parents. And the small face towel plays a vital role in maintaining hygiene and protecting your little one’s health. From wiping their face and hands after meals or playtime, the face towel is like a close companion for your child. Do you know how to choose the right face towel for preschoolers? Let’s find out! Preschool management helps us better understand the importance of hygiene education for children.
Choosing a Face Towel for Your Baby: Softness and Safety Come First
Choosing a face towel might seem simple, but it requires parents’ meticulousness. A baby’s skin is still very delicate, sensitive, and easily irritated. Therefore, the material of the face towel should be the top priority. You should choose face towels made from soft cotton material that is absorbent and safe for your baby’s skin. Avoid choosing face towels made from nylon or synthetic fibers as they can cause irritation and itching for your baby. Ms. Nguyen Thi Lan, a preschool education expert with over 20 years of experience, shared in her book “Caring for Your Baby”: “Choosing a face towel for your baby is like choosing clothes for your baby; you need to prioritize soft, safe materials to protect your baby’s sensitive skin.”
Size and Color: Just Right and Lively to Delight Your Baby
In addition to material, the size of the face towel is also very important. A towel that is too large will be difficult for your baby to use, while a towel that is too small will not be enough to wipe clean. The ideal face towel size for preschoolers is about 30x30cm. Color is also a factor that attracts your baby’s attention. You should choose face towels with bright, lively colors and cute patterns to make your baby more excited to use them. There are face towels printed with cartoon characters that your baby loves, which will surely make them more enthusiastic about personal hygiene. Images for decorating preschool propaganda corners are also a great reference for creating a fun space to encourage your baby to maintain hygiene.
My daughter, Bong, used to be very lazy to wash her face, but since I bought her a face towel with her favorite Kitty cat, she consciously washes her face clean every day. Seeing her happy, I also feel more at ease.
Cleaning Face Towels: Cleanliness to Protect Your Baby’s Health
Face towels come into direct contact with your baby’s facial skin every day, so they need to be cleaned regularly. You should wash your baby’s face towels separately, not with adult clothes. Wash towels with mild soap and dry them in the sun to kill bacteria. According to folk beliefs, sunlight not only dries towels but also wards off evil spirits and protects your baby’s health. Ms. Pham Thi Hoa, a preschool teacher at Hoa Sen Kindergarten in Hanoi, advises: “Face towels should be changed for babies every 2-3 days to ensure hygiene.”
