Some medicine looks just like candy, and some cleaning stuff looks like juice! Help Ollie the owl learn what is a snack and when to stop and ask a grown-up.
FOR GROWN-UPS
The game teaches four rules: only a grown-up gives medicine (and vitamins), medicine is not candy, cleaning things are not food or drink, and if you find something, don’t touch it: tell a grown-up.
Keep medicines, vitamins, cleaning products, laundry pods, button batteries and magnets up, away and out of sight, ideally locked. Close child-resistant caps every time.
Don’t call medicine candy to get a child to take it.
If you think a child swallowed something harmful, in the US call Poison Help: 1-800-222-1222 (free, 24 hours). If they are very sleepy, having trouble breathing or having a seizure, call 911. Outside the US, call your local poison center or emergency number.
A swallowed button battery or magnet is an emergency: go to the emergency room right away.
