NOTE TO ADULTS/OLDER
CHILDREN: KnowCO For
Kids is a 7-step lesson written especially
for younger children, with simpler words, bigger
and more lively text, but with the same basic
concepts- what CO is, how it affects the body,
and how it can be avoided. Parents are encouraged
to guide young kids (recommended age here: 7-12)
through the steps, answering any questions and
defining some of the "big words,"
literally.
IF YOU
ARE A KID, READ HERE: Welcome to KnowCO For Kids, a
program just for you. By clicking on any of the
steps on the left, you can learn a lot about CO and CO
poisoning, a very serious illness
that you can help stop. At the end of the steps,
you should be able to tell your parents:
-
what CO is,
- where CO comes from,
- why CO is so bad,
- symptoms of CO poisoning, and
- how to avoid CO poisoning.
You
should learn this along with your parents, and
you or they can find out even more about CO poisoning at the
main KnowCO page.
