>> Rachel: Good morning, it’s time for Chompers, your twice daily toothbrushing show. 

Start brushing on the top of your mouth. Pick a side, and don’t brush too hard. 

>> KIDS: 3, 2, 1 brush!

>> Rachel: It’s Snacks Week, and today I hope you can STOMACH these jokes about snacks.

Here’s your first one:

How do dairy products stay FLEXIBLE? 

>>KID: HOW? 

>> Rachel: They do yog-ART

Dairy Yogurt, like the kind made with cows milk,  is full of nutrients like Calcium and Vitamin D. These nutrients are good for your body, and help you grow strong teeth and bones! (SFX Xylophone)

>> Rachel: Switch to the other side of the top of your mouth, and brush your molars in the way back too. 

You can make your yogurt fancy by making a parfait. To make a parfait, ask a grown up for a clear cup and spoon.  Then scoop some yogurt into the bottom of the cup. Next add a layer of granola and then add a layer of your favorite pieces of fruit. Do this again and again until you fill your cup. And you’ll end up with a stripey, yummy yogurty snack.

>> Rachel: Switch your brushing to the bottom of your mouth, and don't forget those front teeth. 

Here’s your next joke: 

What’s the best kind of food to eat at the pool?

>> KIDS: I DON’T KNOW

>> Rachel: Chips and DIP

(SFX Rimshot/SPLASH)

>> Rachel: Taking a DIP in the pool on a hot summer day is the perfect way to get some exercise, before taking a snack break with some chips and dip (SFX CRUNCH) 

Switch to the other side of the bottom of your mouth, and give your tongue a brush too

There are lots of ways to whip up chips and dip. Potato Chips and ranch dip are perfect for picnics. Or you can eat tortillia chips with some tasty Guacamole. 

Speaking of guac, here’s our last joke!

What did the guacamole say to the nachos? 

>> KIDS: WHAT DID THEY SAY?

>> Rachel: Thank you for your friend -- CHIP. 

(SFX Rimshot/Laughter)

>> Rachel: That’s it for Chompers. Come back tonight for more silly snack jokes. Until then, 

>> KIDS: 3, 2, 1 spit!!
