Content :

Candy is otherwise called sweet or lollies. It is a confectionery that children mostly lick. In case you operate in an environment where the kids are not used to the word ‘candy’, use ‘sweet’ instead. The idea is for the kids to get the message. So, use the word they are familiar with.

Tell the kids these:

If you find any piece of candy, (sweet) give it to your parents or any adult around. Don’t taste it

Don’t take medicines from your friends, classmates or people you don’t know. Only collect medicines from your parents, doctors, teachers and elder siblings

If you are sick, don’t take medicine by yourself. Wait for an adult to give it to you.

If you take medicine wrongly, it will cause big problem to you and worsen your sickness.
