Unless you work in the\u00a0<em>gezondheidssector<\/em> or health sector, you probably don&#8217;t have ample training in this very simple task. I found a very informative and catchy video from a university hospital in Belgium that tells you exactly how you should wash your hands. The steps are as follows:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><em>2 keer zeep pompen<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Handpalm tegen handpalm<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Handpalm over handrug<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Vingers kruisen en handpalm tegen handpalm<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Achterzijde vingers<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Duim en duimmuis<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Nagelbed en vingertoppen<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Hoe ontsmet je op een correcte manier je handen?\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/a9qu1xdHRQY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>If you have the right moves to wash your hand, it is also important that you don&#8217;t rush through the process.\u00a0<em>Je hoef geen haast te hebben!\u00a0<\/em>In the U.S., the standard wash-your-hands-song is Happy Birthday, and the now very popular Baby Shark song. If you are looking to add to your repertoire of hand-washing songs and want to practice Dutch, I have the following suggestions.<\/p>\n<h4><em>Twee violen en een trommel en een fluit<\/em><\/h4>\n<p>This song is an alternative to the &#8220;<em>Lang zal ze leven<\/em>&#8221; happy birthday song and allows for some nice long vowels to make more time.<\/p>\n<p><em>Twee violen en een trommel en en fluit<br \/>\n<\/em><em>Want jij bent nu jarig en de vlagen hangen uit<br \/>\n<\/em><em>ei ei ei en wij zijn zo blij<br \/>\n<\/em><em>want jij bent nu jarig en dat vieren wij<br \/>\noh wat zijn wij heden blij<br \/>\nwant jij bent nu jarig, jij bent nu jarig<br \/>\noh wat zijn wij heden blij<br \/>\nwant jij bent nu jarig en dat vieren wij<\/em><\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/youtu.be\/uhe31nqYO3I<\/p>\n<h4>Begin de dag met een dansje<\/h4>\n<p>The following song is my personal favorite. I first heard it on a morning radio show from 3FM. Giel, the radio host, would call someone whose contact details had been sent in by someone else. This person had to sing the song on national radio! Make sure to add a <em>dansje<\/em> and a\u00a0<em>lach<\/em> while singing!
