Hygiene Importance Quiz

Read each situation and answer the questions. Good hygiene helps protect your health, but routines can look different for different people and families.

At the community sports day

Hamish has been playing outside on a warm day. Before eating her snack, she washes her hands with soap and water. Later, she uses a clean towel after swimming and brushes her teeth before bed. Her friend Jai says every family follows exactly the same hygiene routine. Hamish knows people may have different routines, products or access to water—and everyone deserves respect.
