Title: Make a Healthy Splash!

Germs can get into the water from poop or when they rinse off a person’s body or splash pad surfaces. Swallowing water containing germs can make you sick with diarrhea.

• Sprayed water typically gets drained, filtered, and disinfected before being sprayed again.
• Chlorine kills most germs within a few minutes, not instantly
• Swim diapers don’t stop germs, poop, or pee from getting in the water.

Keep pee and poop OUT of the water.

DO:

• Stay out of the water if you have diarrhea.
• Shower before getting in the water.
• Take kids on bathroom breaks or check diapers every hour.

DON’T:

• Swallow the water.
• Poop or pee in the water.
• Sit or stand on the jets. Sitting or standing on jets can rinse poop off your butt.
