Just for FunWhat people are saying about nanobugs..."I am a teacher here in Australia. I recently used Nanobugs tattoos with my students as a discussion point to emphasize the value of washing hands and basic hygiene. It was a good way to get their attention. " Jacob R. – a teacher "I am a student teacher in Lincoln, NE and find these nanobugs intriguing! I introduced them to my fifth graders and they had a ball learning about the different viruses and such. The trading cards are also information for me and my roommates. This is such a neat website and will definitely pass this along! " Rachel L. - Student Teacher "Your website is a really fun place to share with my 4-year-old grandson when he visits. He loves to watch the nanobugs do their little monologs. His favorite nanobug is Pseudomonas aeruginosa. He can pronounce their names after listening to the announcer on the website. I was happy when you added the additional information to the menagerie. Alex was asking for more information and I didn't want to try and make things up. By the way, Alex now willingly brushes his teeth saying "let’s get rid of those nanobugs on our teeth". (Streptococcus mutans) " Nancy S. – a grandmother "The Nanobugs are really fantastic. I am still laughing. Thanks for keeping me informed. " Gladys S. – a senior citizen "I loved your nano bug cards! I am a junior in the nursing program at Union college. My favorite card is the E. coli 0157 nanobug. These cards would have been so helpful when I took microbiology. I always had the worst time remembering the different types of viruses and it would have helped if I had little ways to remember the importance of each and every virus. I think that cards like these would really help little kids understand how important it is to wash their hands and prevent the spread of germs. Thank you for all your hard work. These cards are amazing and I hope that more people get a chance to experience these cards! " Melany B. "Commenting on the nanobugs Hepatitis A video: "What a great way to educate America and the world about such a complex subject" " Stuart H. "My kids love to play with the Nanobugs playing cards. They love the Nanobugs! " Shawn M. – a nurse and mother "I am the infection control nurse for our hospital. This is the first
time that I have seen your site, but I have sent it to all my friends
who have children. IT IS THE GREATEST!!!!
Deborah - Infection Control Nurse "The kids used the coloring book. Even though I teach 10-12 they enjoyed coloring and learning about infection control. The Hepatitis A Video was a big hit as well! Thanks for a great classroom resource. " Elementary School Teacher "My hospital-Evans Memorial Hospital in Claxton, Georgia- has a Department Director's Meeting with the CEO and CFO on a monthly basis. It is scheduled on the Tuesday following the Hospital Board meeting on the fourth Monday of each month. We meet from 1:30pm-2:30pm to discuss business, financial, and community-related hospital concerns. Also, our CEO requests that two Department Heads present a hospital topic of our choice to the group and include a team-building exercise. The objective of our presentation is to be informative, interesting and fun! I am the Director of the Laboratory. The title of our presentation was "What Bugs You at EMH?" featuring the nanobugs. We covered a combination of bacteriology information, how tests are performed at EMH and hand hygiene. The nanobugs material (powerpoint and tattoos) was really helpful in meeting our objectives.
