We are so grateful to the New York Dental Hygienists’ Association (NYDHA) and the Central Region Component of the New York Dental Hygienists’ Association for bringing an exciting and educational experience to Springbrook’s Kids Unlimited Preschool (KUP) classrooms in celebration of National Children’s Dental Health Month.
The students had a fantastic time learning about the importance of oral health through engaging activities, interactive lessons, and fun games designed to encourage positive dental habits.
Highlights of the Day:
-Hands-on lessons about brushing and keeping cavities away
-Reading fun and informative books about dental health
-Playing interactive nutrition games
-Each child received a new toothbrush, toothpaste, a dental-themed coloring book, and a certificate
-Oral health fact sheets with preventive care tips were sent home to families
The dental hygiene student volunteers did a great job making learning about oral health fun and approachable. Through their guidance, the preschoolers gained confidence in caring for their teeth and are more excited than ever for their next trip to the dentist!
Thank you to everyone who made this special day possible and for helping the KUP students build healthy habits.
