I second Stella. My boyfriend's entire family are doctors. They have a summerhouse in Sweden where they get dirty all the time doing chores (and I mean *dirty*). One day I saw the nephews playing in the dirt with some rocks, putting them in their mouth, etc. I freaked out but J's parents told me it's good to expose kids early to *some* dirt because it builds up their immune system.
