A child’s body and immune system are still developing, making them more vulnerable to environmental hazards like air pollution, unsafe water, and chemical exposure.

🔹 Clean air supports healthy lungs
🔹 Safe water prevents infections
🔹 Green spaces improve mental well-being
🔹 Clean surroundings reduce disease spread

🌍 Protecting the environment means protecting our children’s health.

Hygiene isn’t just a habit — it’s a gift we give our children every single day.
From clean air to clean food, from daily baths to healthy tiffins, these small steps build strong bodies and sharper minds.

Healthy kids today = a healthier nation tomorrow 🇮🇳
Let’s teach hygiene not by fear, but by routine, love, and example.

✨ Let hygiene be a daily habit ✨

Small habits today. Big wellness tomorrow. 🌱🧼

A healthy child doesn’t start with medicines — it starts with hygiene.
Simple daily practices like washing hands, trimming nails, wearing clean uniforms, and eating safe food protect children from infections and build lifelong discipline.

✨ Teach hygiene early
✨ Practice it daily
✨ Protect their tomorrow

Because prevention is the most powerful form of care. ❤️👶👨‍⚕️

Hygiene isn’t just a habit — it’s a lifelong superpower. 💪🧼

Clean hands today mean a healthier tomorrow.
When children learn hygiene early, they don’t just stay infection-free — they grow up confident, mindful, and resilient.

✨ Clean Hands
🧠 Clean Mind
👶 Healthy Child

Let’s build a future where good habits begin at home, continue in schools, and last a lifetime. Small actions. Big impact.

Because prevention is always better than cure. ❤️👨‍⚕️

Drowning is a leading cause of injury-related deaths in children and is often sudden and silent.
Limited swimming skills, lack of supervision, and unsafe water access increase the risk.

✅ 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬:
Supervise children closely, teach swimming, install barriers, use life jackets, and promote community awareness.

🆘 In emergencies, check pulse, start immediate CPR, and seek medical help without delay.

Safe water is a shared responsibility of family, school, and community.

A quick guide by 𝐃𝐫. 𝐍𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐡, 𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐏 𝐄𝐁 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓:

Recognize the bite:
🦟 Mosquito → itchy red bumps
🐜 Fleas/Bedbugs → multiple bites in a line
🐝 Bee/Wasp → sudden sharp pain + swelling
🕷️ Mites → intense night-time itching

First aid: wash well, apply ice, soothe with calamine/aloe.
Seek help if: fever, facial swelling, breathing trouble, or spreading redness appear.
