Teaching children habits for a lifetime of good health is a top priority since birth. You know that educating them about proper nutrition, taking measures for accident prevention, and enforcing overall safety are keys to helping children become healthy adults. Educating and enforcing good oral health habits is another key that will help children lead healthier lives.
StarSmilez helps parents, educators and health professionals to teach children how to develop good oral health habits by making brushing fun through the use of creative, educational characters.
Teaching kids the right way to brush and floss can be a challenge, especially since attention spans are short and they cannot yet understand the importance of good oral health. Children may often think that a "good" brushing lasts about five seconds and that flossing is optional or too difficult. Your job, and ours, is to teach them that brushing and flossing are important and take only a few minutes each day.
StarSmilez educational puppets help you in that endeavor. Puppets and plush toys are comfort items to which children easily relate. A 2005 study by the Sesame Workshop concluded that the Muppets® influenced food choices made by preschoolers. StarSmilez educational toys have made it possible for parents and professionals to easily teach kids how to brush, floss and take care of their teeth. The Special Olympics, several dental schools, the U.S. Surgeon General, and health professionals worldwide recommend the use of StarSmilez. Additionally, various political figures, members of royal families and celebrities have used these puppets in numerous campaigns to promote good oral health. |
