Jason Manford’s helpful advice for parents to encourage kids to wash hands
Jason Manford has offered some helpful advice to parents with young children amid growing concerns surrounding the coronavirus pandemic.
The 38-year-old comic has joined the long list of celebs using their social media platform to spread awareness for health tips during the worrying outbreak.
And Jason took to Twitter to share his wisdom with fellow parents and carers, as he discovered a useful hand washing tip to make sure kids scrub their mitts.
The father-of-four shared a snap of his kids’ hands, each with a unique drawing of either a heart or a star.
He wrote: “Quick one before I go. Little idea. Draw something on your children’s hands to encourage them to keep washing. ‘By the end of the day, I want that heart to have disappeared!’”
