Be warned that a giant finger emerges from the ground as a model that Chloe uses to teach Nurb about nails. The digit imagery may not be appropriate for your class, depending on their level of maturity. You might want to pass on the video, but don't overlook the other accompanying resources: a detailed article to read, a printable labeling diagram, a word find, and articles on nail health.
