How do germs get inside your body?

Hello Cambridge Families,
Hope you are enjoying this sunshine! Today's health post is a Mystery Doug episode on how germs get inside your body.
We all know germs are too small to see. Sadly however, if they find a way inside your body, they are powerful enough to make you sick! Might sound scary but the good news is that we have the power to protect ourselves. In this video, Mystery Doug shares how.
For extra protection, you can practice healthy habits like getting enough sleep, eating healthy food, staying hydrated and getting plenty of exercise. Even if germs do get in, your healthy body will be strong enough to fight them off so you won't get sick.
Stay healthy everyone
I miss you!

Tick Talk

Good morning Cambridge families, in the spring and summer months we spend a lot of time outside. You can enjoy the great outdoors but don't forget about the threat of ticks. Ticks can carry diseases like Lyme disease. Join Raji and Alex while they go for a walk and talk about what ticks are and how you can avoid them.

Good morning Cambridge Families, As you know, one of my favorite topics is how to stay healthy. I'm sure we would all agree that eating healthy food is a very important way to stay healthy. Have you ever noticed that sometimes we don't like a healthy food the first time we try it? Well, did you know you have to try a new food 10 times before your tastebuds can decide whether they really like the food or not? Gregory the Terrible Eater is the story of a goat who eventually learns to like the flavor of cans, boots and newspapers, those foods goats normally like, only by trying them over and over again. Maybe you can try to eat a new healthy food this week? Gregory the Terrible Eater

Good Morning Cambridge Families! Wow this weather was unexpected!

Thinking about you. Let's stay connected!
