Written for the Muslim child in mind, I think parts could be useful for non-Muslim children as well. It's a little dated (2010) but I think still very useful.

      Hygiene

      Basic Islamic Hygiene (Source: Shaykh Fawzaan)
      • Cleaning one's teeth
      • Moisturizing one's hair
      • Looking at one's self in the mirror
      • Using delightful fragrances
      • Shaving the pubic area
      • Trimming the mustache closely
      • Trimming one's nails
      • Removing underarm hair

      Narrated Abu Huraira: 
      Allah’s Apostle said, “Five practices are characteristics of the Fitra: circumcision, shaving the pubic region, clipping the nails and cutting the moustaches short.” (Bukhari)

      Fitrah can be translated as: ‘disposition’, ‘nature’, ‘constitution’, or ‘instinct’.

      The Mother of the Believers, 'Aisha,  said that the Prophet  said:  Ten are the acts of Fitrah:
      1.  clipping the mustache,
      2.  letting the beard grow, 
      3. using as-Siwaak
      4. snuffing up water in the nose, 
      5. cutting the nails, 
      6. washing the finger joints, 
      7. plucking the hair under the armpits, 
      8. shaving the pubes, 
      9. and cleaning one's private parts with water. 
      10. The narrator said, 'I have forgotten the tenth, but it may have been rinsing the mouth.'
