A lot of children struggle with washing their hands, it may cause them anxiety and they may not even understand why they are doing it. Hopefully, this social story will help encourage your child(ren)/students to wash their hands, and also help promote independence.

I recommend printing out each of the individual pages, laminating them and then binding them into a book so it will be easier for students to read – or be read to, as well as being stronger and longer lasting. You can use only the pages that you feel most relevant.
