Oh - forgot to add in our suggestion for hand washing...my little guy had an issue with this as well...we got creative and put some interesting things up on his mirror to read while he was washing his hands....my husband has been singing this silly song he made up where he states the powers of two all the way up to 2 to the power of 14....he sings it while DS6 brushes his teeth and he has it memorized...so we wrote them all down on a chart for him that he reads while washing his hands....we also placed his cubscout promise and pledge so that he could practice saying them :-) These seem to keep him at the sink brushing his teeth and washing his hands long enough to get the job done :-)
