The decision comes days after Israeli elementary schools were allowed to reopen.

Preschools' administrators will have to ensure that the classrooms are properly disinfected prior to the arrival of the children, as well as at the end of the day.

They must also verify that children properly wash their hands and that each child has a health statement signed by the staff and legal guardians on a daily basis.

Under the new guidelines, preschools must abide by a cap of 17 children per room.
