If you sneeze or cough into a tissue, throw it in the trash right away.<\/li><li>Keep your hands out of your mouth, nose, and eyes. This will help keep germs out of your body.<\/li><li>Wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Follow these five steps\u2014wet, lather (make bubbles), scrub (rub together), rinse and dry. You can sing the \u201cHappy Birthday\u201d song twice.<\/li><li>If you don\u2019t have soap and water, have an adult help you use a special hand cleaner.<\/li><li>Keep things clean. Older children can help adults at home and school clean the things we touch the most, like desks, doorknobs, light switches, and remote controls. (Note for adults: you can find more information about cleaning and disinfecting on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/community\/home\/cleaning-disinfection.html#routine-cleaning\">CDC\u2019s website<\/a>.)<\/li><li>If you feel sick, stay home.
