Medicines and cleaning products: only a grown-up opens them

Colorful bottles and pills can look like juice or sweets. Kids Safety has one sheet for cleaning products and one for medicines.

What gugiboard shows

Each sheet compares a bottle or pill within reach with the same item locked away by an adult.

Safe or Dangerous repeats the idea with quick scenes and spoken explanations.

Use one rule: “Medicine only from a grown-up.”

Ask your child to show where the safe cabinet is in the picture.

Both sheets end on the same idea: the bottle or pill exists, but only a grown-up opens it. Watch for your child repeating that phrase.

The explanation strip stays below the photo, so the locked cabinet is always visible.

Let your child hand you a cleaning bottle while you wipe the table, then watch you put it back in the locked place.

Say the medicine rule out loud together: “Only from a grown-up.”

Store medicines and chemicals high and locked, in their original containers.

Keep your local poison control number visible.
