- Before watching ¿Cómo tener una sonrisa saludable?, ask kids, ¿Saben de algún consejo para tener los dientes sanos?
- Then watch the video. Ask kids, ¿Qué consejos aprendieron?
- Read the mini book together.
- Then get kids up and moving with our ¡BAILA BAILA! video.
- Finally, do the Demuestra lo que sabes skill sheet.
- With our Familias de palabras: Risas y sonrisas game, kids sort words by word family on two levels: with and without picture support.
- Our ¿Cómo te lavas los dientes? skill sheet gives kids practice in simple sequencing skills.

Materials: Mi tabla de dientes sanos skill sheet, pencils
- As kids read in the mini book, there are many things they can do to keep their teeth healthy every day! With this handy chart, families can work with children to track their healthy habits.
- Give each child a copy of the chart. You might want to send a note home to families as well. For one full week, have children check off the good things they did for their teeth each day.
- At the end of the week, have children look at their charts. They can see which healthy habits they find easy to do and which ones they need to work on.
