Washing your hands
The two most important factors when a person is washing their hands should be length of washing and temperature of water. A person should typically sing Happy Birthday as they're washing their hands to give themselves a time reference. Warm water, as warm as a person can stand, is also important in killing bacteria.
One of the important principles of hand washing is to rid germs off of the things you touch. Washing your hands will also keep you healthy.

As soon as germs were discovered in the late 18th century people began washing their hands more often.
While it is true that hand washing with plain soap doesn't actually kill all germs, hand washing is still a vital part of disease prevention. The mechanical action of hand washing--both the flushing action of the running water and the friction from the rubbing together of your hands--removes harmful pathogens. And that's why hand washing is considered so important to public health.*Proper hand washing technique: use very warm water and soap, briskly wash and rub hands and between fingers with suds for a minimum of 20 to 30 seconds, rinse and dry on clean towel. To know if you are washing your hands long enough for the germs to be removed from your hands, sing two verses of Mary Had a Little Lamb or sing Happy Birthday twice before you stop washing and rubbing them with the soap suds.
Hot water and scrubbing are key to washing hands. Enough time to allow the soap to do its job, along with the mechanical cleaning of rubbing hands together, combined with hot water will effectively wash hands.

Washing your hands, as Florence Nightingale found, promotes cleanliness, preventing infection and deaths of the people you care for.
Washing hands before working with food of any kind is very important. Human hands carry bacteria and other microorganisms (germ) that are picked up when using the toilet, from pets, and from countless surfaces such as door knobs, chairs and personal objects. These germs all can be transferred to food, causing contamination and spread of infectious disease. Hand washing is a basic safety precaution. also washing yoru hands is good hygene!! :)
