Since young children typically do not have symptoms of sickness early or until they have been sick for a day or two, washing their hands regularly is necessary as a preventive measure. A portable sink comes in handy since it is relatively inexpensive. Also if it becomes a priority for pre schools, the investment can be used as a tax deduction and parents of small children would be overjoyed to cut down on the number of colds that their children have to catch. The day cares would also benefit because their staff would be healthier too. Young pre-school children often do not care whether they get messy or not. In fact, in some cases they tend to enjoy it this makes it possible for bacteria and germs to spread from one kid to another. Over recess some can get so messy such that when they get back to class, the teacher may find some students dirtier than what it is acceptable there fore necessitating the use of a portable sink, whereby the teacher can formulate a line as the students come back into class giving each one a chance to wash their hands and maintain a higher level of hygiene. This prevents the spread of germs and helps the kids to remain clean, less distracted, it also helps the teacher to help them wash for the recommended 20 seconds up to the elbow. The use of portable sinks in classrooms is also economical since it’s a great way of regulating the use of water by the pre-school kids. By placing these portable sinks near the kids work stations, the teacher can regulate the amount of water used in the cleanup process, rather than the children using as much water as they want. This reduces greatly the water bills paid by the school. If adopted it could be a way for pre schools and day cares to differentiate themselves from their competition which makes it a win- win situation for all players involved.
