What Is Your Mouth For? – 3 Book Centre Safety Pack

A practical mouth-safety resource for early learning services

Biting. Finger sucking. Toys and objects in mouths.
These everyday behaviours can quickly become safety concerns in early childhood settings.

What Is Your Mouth For? helps educators teach children aged 1–4 about mouth safety, biting prevention and safe oral habits through simple language, positive guidance and engaging illustrations.

Teach safety before an accident happens.
