Listen together Read aloud by Amy · 19 seconds
Little brush and minty paste,
Brush them all, there is no haste.
Top teeth, bottom teeth, side to side,
Brush the back where crumbs can hide.
Spit and rinse and smile so bright,
Clean teeth now, morning and night.
Talk about it together
Can you show me your big clean smile?
Tip: read it again tomorrow. Children often enjoy saying the last word of each line once the poem feels familiar.
