Hekima and Kiponzo are friends. One day, their teacher told
them to play ‘ukuti-ukuti’. After playing, they were sweating
and their clothes were dirty. Their teacher allowed them to go

home. The next day, Kiponzo went to Hekima’s home to pick
her up so that they could go to school together. She found
Hekima waiting for her outside.

She greeted her and they started walking to school. On the
way to school, they started talking.

Kiponzo Oh! My friend, you look very smart and beautiful.
Congratulations!

Hekima Thank you friend.

Kiponzo What can I do in order to look as smart as you?

Hekima To be clean and smart, you must be clean

always.

Kiponzo Which materials can I use to clean my body and
clothes?

Hekima You should use clean water, soap, a sponge,

a towel, body oil and a comb.

Kiponzo Why should we use such materials?
Hekima We should use them because they can remove dirt

from our skin and clothes easily.

Kiponzo Thank you so much my friend. I shall make sure
cleanliness is maintained everyday.

After a week, Kiponzo was looking clean and smart. Their
teacher congratulated them for maintaining cleanliness. It is
very important to clean our bodies and clothes everyday. We
should cut our hair short as well as our nails.
