Where to go with the kids? : Vacation care can be a big challenge

Mainz (dpa) – Children and teenagers have a full six weeks of summer vacation – longer than most parents can take time off. In many cases, this would correspond to the total annual leave of employees.

And so every year parents are faced with the great challenge of organizing the care of their children over the lesson-free period.

This is particularly problematic for employees of smaller companies. "Of course, a craft company cannot set up its own childcare," says Rita Petry from the vocational training department of the Chamber of Crafts in the Palatinate.

Children’s dental care
(6-8 years)

At around five and a half years, many children lose their first milk teeth. Read here what is important when changing teeth and taking care of permanent teeth.

Dental care in children aged 6-8 years

At the age of around five and a half to six years the time has come: the front incisors begin to shake and the first permanent molars break through.

Since food residues get caught particularly easily in the recesses of the molars and this area is difficult to clean with the toothbrush, the risk of caries is now increasing. In addition, the enamel of the permanent teeth is still very thin. Good care of children’s teeth is therefore particularly important.

Health: Dental care for children – this is important to note

Of course, not everything that applies to adults applies to an almost toothless small mouth: each tooth should be brushed thoroughly about 15 times with the brush on all sides. It goes without saying that this takes less than three minutes with two to four teeth.

Grooming two to four times a day serves health, dental care and oral hygiene

Should be cleaned after eating, with a short break of about fifteen minutes to the meal. This may not be so important for small children, but it is for the older ones:

  • Fruit and other acids contained in the food soften the protective tooth enamel.
  • Soft tooth enamel is sanded down with the toothbrush and can no longer protect the tooth.
  • After the meal, it takes about a quarter of an hour for the saliva to harden the enamel again.
  • Bacteria eat the sugar that is contained between the teeth during meal times, thereby leaving holes in the teeth. But not within a quarter of an hour after a meal: they take longer.

For health: Age-appropriate dental care

Children who get their teeth brushed by their parents right from the start get used to it very quickly and want to lend a hand at the latest with one year. You can also: Cleaning yourself trained. The more exercise children have in doing dental care themselves, the faster they can do it really well.
