Somi is a girl who loves to play in the park. But last week, she had a cold and stayed in bed for three days. "How can I stay healthy?" she asked her mom.
Mom said, "Let's make some good habits. A habit is a thing you do again and again." First, Mom told Somi to wash her hands with soap. Tiny germs live on our hands, and some of them can make us sick. Soap and water wash the germs off.
Next, Mom made a lunch with rice, fish, fruit, and vegetables. "Good food helps your body grow," she said. Somi tried a carrot, and it was sweet and crunchy.
Somi also brushes her teeth in the morning and at night. She drinks a cup of water when she is thirsty. After school, she runs and jumps rope with her friends. This exercise makes her heart and legs strong.
At night, Somi goes to bed early and gets a long sleep, so her body can rest and grow. Now Somi feels strong and well each day.
