Brushing Teeth
One day while we were eating lunch at the school, one of the teachers said that she had to go so she could get the kids ready to brush their teeth. Every classroom at this school has a line of cups and toothbrushes hanging on the wall. We knew they were teaching the kids about the importance of brushing their teeth, but we hadn't seen the process yet. Soon we heard a song over the loudspeaker about brushing teeth so we went outside to investigate.
All of the students had their cups and toothbrushes and were brushing away. They were lined up along the ditches and around the trees.
Some of the older students brought out the big buckets of water for rinsing, and the kids filedl up their own cups.
We never saw the tubes of toothpaste, but we have no doubt there was plenty to go around. After playing the song about five times, the students were finally finished and ready to start their afternoon classes.
Sorry for the quality of the video, but I did want you to hear the song without our running commentary. :)

I know that there are plenty of toothbrushes.
You think they've been to BKK?
