Washroom hygiene – the little boys’ room

What issues should be considered when equipping a washroom designed for use by small children, asks ECJ?

Not everyone likes visiting a public washroom. In fact many of us try to avoid them where possible due to hygiene concerns or a general reluctance to share an intimate space with strangers.

Frightening air dryers

Noisy warm air hand dryers can frighten young children and deter them from washing their hands properly, she said. “Even if the noise doesn’t bother them, some air dryers in schools and nurseries have so little power that children become bored and leave before they finish the job.

“Paper towels are a good choice since they dry the hands quickly and effectively, enabling children to return to their classroom or play area sooner.”
