We all get the
common cold at some stage so you can have a lot of fun giving this
giant microbe as a get better soon gift.
Each of the Giant Microbe Toys are about 5 to 7 inch’s in height and
they come with an image of the real microbe it represents, in this case
the common cold as well as information about the microbe. |

If you’re teaching your child about the common cold you can explain
about the importance of keeping your hands clean. That cleaning there
hands with soap and water, or with hand sanitizer, (what ever you use)
has many benefits.
As children have a tendency to
touch there face and eyes (only natural as this is how we learn) you
are increasing the likelihood of transferring the cold virus from your
hands to there face and upper respiratory tract.
So
by washing there hands they will help to reduce the chance of
transferring the virus to your eyes or nose. Plus cleaning your hands
helps to reduce the spread of viruses from surface to surface, so they
can make sure mammy doesn’t get a cold too.
And
anything you can do to help keep others from getting colds will help to
break the viruses' chain of transmission, thereby ultimately perhaps
keeping you healthy as well.
Interesting
fact, there are over 200 serologically different viral types that cause
colds. The most Common symptoms include a sore throat, runny nose, and
fever and as there is no cure prevention like washing hands is very
important.
The
common cold is the most frequent infectious disease in humans with on
average two to four infections a year in adults and between 6 to12 in
children.
So if you want a teaching aid, the common cold giant microbe is great and if you want it as a gag gift or just as a cool toy that’s fine two.
The common cold microbe is only one of many of the Giant Microbe Toys to be had.
