Teaching kids about personal care shouldn’t feel like a battle! The best way to encourage healthy habits is to make them fun, engaging, and easy to follow. Here are some tips to help your pre-teen girl develop a self-care routine that she enjoys and follows regularly.

1. Make It a Routine, Not a Rule

Children thrive on routines. Set specific times for showers, handwashing, moisturizing, and oral care. When a habit is consistent, it becomes second nature.

2. Let Them Pick Their Own Products

Giving your child the choice to pick their own body wash, face wash, or lotion (within safe and age-appropriate options) makes them feel involved and responsible.

3. Turn It into a Fun Activity

Use timers, reward charts, or playful reminders to make personal care fun. For example, play their favorite song while they brush their teeth or create a mini skincare spa session at home.

4. Lead by Example

Children learn by watching their parents. Show them how you take care of your skin and hygiene, and they will be more likely to follow your lead.

5. Use Products That Feel Good

Mildly scented, fun-textured, and gentle products make the experience enjoyable. TIVA’s personal care range is designed to make personal hygiene exciting and safe for pre-teen girls.

Developing a self-care habit early in life helps children grow into confident individuals who value their well-being. TIVA is here to make that journey smooth, safe, and enjoyable!
