Learning about germs and food hygiene at a young age can help to install good habits in your child that they will use throughout life.
Meet Grubeye, the star character of the Food Standards Agency GermWatch campaign, which highlights the importance of food safety and hygiene at home.
Fun Activities for Kids
To get your kids started, check out the fun and free games and puzzles available to download below:
- Wordsplat - a super word search where children have to find germ-related words in the grid.
- Germ Maze - linking Grubeye to the germ will teach children about the importance of washing hands, whilst practising their concentration skills.
- Colouring Sheet - a great creative activity that children will love, they can colour Grubeye in with some yukky colours and learn about germs at the same time.
