**Side note: The kids don't actually sing/say that poem. But they do brush their teeth on a daily basis, at lunch, as a whole school. It's part of the Malimali Program (malimali means smile) which promotes healthy teeth throughout the GPS (Goverment Primary Schools) here in Tonga. I think it's a pretty amazing idea and even though, for many students, it might be the only place they brush their teeth, at least they are forming some good habits!
