I always covered with my hands. But I went to the website and now I get it, hands touch, elbows don't!! Kids can touch 300 surfaces in 1/2 hour and they hate to wash their hands. This is a simple thing that can make a huge difference. Also, there is a DVD the kids love, and it teaches them in a fun way other necessary hygiene habits, as well as the elbow cough. <br></p>maggiebrownFri, 25 Sep 2009 23:06:12 -0000http://www.eagletribune.com/permalink/local_story_154042639.html#comment-10460756<p>I have a tip that reinforces the above recommendations, including coughing into the elbow: I tried this great program with my kids called Germy Wormy Germ Smart.
