Parents will tell you that cleanliness and hygiene are of the utmost importance at the day care facility where their children are being cared for during the better part of the day. Children are prone to infections very easily, and if one child comes to day care with an illness, it can be spread throughout the school quickly. Hand washing is imperative as the first line of defense. Having portable sinks placed in the actual classroom are an excellent way to make hand washing easy and assessable throughout the day. For teachers, trying to coordinate a calm and organized line of young children for a trip to the bathroom is a great task that takes up valuable time. Having a portable sink inside the classroom would cut down on numerous trips to the bathroom for hand washing and clean up. Portable sinks are so convenient when a teacher is trying to keep a room full of toddlers clean and tidy. When a portable sink is readily available, the children are able to wash their hands more often and, in turn, maintain a higher level of hygiene.
