- Bring hand sanitiser or wipes and help children to follow good hygiene measures
- Clean equipment touchpoints before playing with anti-bacterial wipes
- Wash or sanitise hands before and after using the equipment
- Avoiding eating when using the play equipment
- Keep 2 metres apart from other children and families (not in your bubble) where possible
