<!-- @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } --> Teaching young children how to take care of their bodies goes beyond upholding an appearance of cleanliness. It can, in fact, be an important step in preventing health problems that may develop over time as a result of improper hygiene. Though regular doctor appointments and check-ups are important, parents play a strong role in the dynamic of establishing healthy self-care habits for young children. This rule of thumb can be applied to one's overall health. Still, there is an often overlooked element of personal health that requires special attention, and that is related to ones sense of hearing. The ears are a delicate organ and require special hygienic consideration in order to prevent the possibility of hearing problems in the long run. By following a set of close guidelines, parents can set a positive example for their children when it comes to this vital habit. To begin with, be sure to use a very gentle soap when cleaning in and around the ears. Never immerse soapy waters deep into the canal of your ears, as this is often the root of many hearing problems. Another important consideration, is knowing how to use cotton swabs with the proper techniques. Consult your physician when teaching children the benefits and the proper technique for cleaning ones ears. A certain amount of wax is actually important for keeping your hearing health at peak levels. Another important habit to instill in young children is never to stick foreign objects or dirty fingers into the ear. This is not only a key cause of hearing damage and damage to the auditory canal, but can also be the cause of hearing infections over time. The same applies to dirty fingers reaching into the ear canal to relieve an itch. Be sure to practice the same positive habits yourself, as children will mimic the actions of their role models and parents. As youngster grow up, having instilled the right personal hygiene habits in them will mean fewer risks of hearing problems later in life. Combined with regular check-ups with a general practitioner, and you will have less cause for concern when contemplating the very real and painful reality of infections and damage to the auditory senses. This sense is a vital component to a healthy and enjoyable lifestyle. There are so many elements in our daily lives that require a healthy sense of audio, not to mention the numerous things that we enjoy in our daily lives, like music and shows. When contemplating the risks of a long-term auditory problem, it's important to point out the reality of the situation to children from a very young age. Of course it's not advisable to use scare tactics in order to persuade them to take care of their ears, but pointing out the reality of a life with a less than optimum sense of sound will help them to grasp the concept and the importance of keeping their body in an ideal sense of health.
