Try this action rhyme during Dental Health Month.
Brush them 'til they're clean and bright.
[show brushing movements]
Brush to keep them shiny white.
[show a big smile]
Brush them in the morning's light.
[stretch and yawn]
Brush at bedtime--when it's night.
[put head to side on folded hands]
When it's time to check them out
You won' have to fuss or pout.
[shake head side to side]
"Dr. Brush-em" will smile and say,
"You're teeth look great,
Hip, Hip Hooray!"
[stand and raise arms on "Hip, Hip Hooray!"]
