Hi ~
the weather is getting colder and colder with every passing day, do you know what does that mean ?
here is a little poem to let you guess :
Little Boy Blue, Please Cover Your Nose
by Darren Sardelli
Little Boy Blue,
Please cover your nose.
You sneezed on Miss Muffet
And ruined her clothes.
You sprayed Mother Hubbard,
And now she is sick.
You put out the fire
On Jack’s candlestick.
Your sneeze is the reason
Why Humpty fell down.
You drenched Yankee Doodle
When he came to town.
The blind mice are angry!
The sheep are upset!
From now on use tissues
So no one gets wet!
flu season ! (a.k.a sneezing season)
poor little boy blue he lost face in front of everyone, sure none of you pretty girls want that to happen to her, right ?
here is some etiquette rules to help you avoid being in his situation:
- when sneezing, be sure that your nose and mouth area is fully covered, preferably with a tissue, but if you don't have one, you can sneeze on your inner elbow.
- after sneezing, don't shake hand with people or touch things, you have to first make sure that you washed your hands with soap first, and if that is not an option use wet wipes (those should never leave your bag).
- If you feel that you are going in a sneezing frenzy, you have to excuse yourself and get out of the room.
- If you sneeze loudly, you have to apologize after sneezing, and if someone else sneezed, make sure to say "bless you" (or its equivalent in your language).
- sometimes people might offer you their handkerchief when you sneeze, never give it to them dirty. you have to take it home, wash it, then give it back to them.
Hope you all stay healthy and beautiful through the cold weather :)
