I didn't wash my girls hands until they were dirty or she was having a bath. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-keep-their-hands-clean#post-531281 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 11:48:44 +0000 SugarplumsMom 531281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've read that baby drool is anti-microbial and leaves a layer of it on hard toys.

I do use those hand and face wipes sometimes though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-keep-their-hands-clean#post-531246 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 11:41:11 +0000 LaineysMom 531246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD just found her hand and LOVES to suck it all the time. I try to wipe it off with a warm wash cloth as much as possible, but its literally in her mouth every 5 minutes.</p> <p>How do you keep your LO's hands clean? </p>
