Harmful Objects And Sharp Objects

What are Harmful Objects and Sharp Objects?

Harmful objects are things that can cause injury, illness, or discomfort if not handled properly. They can be found in our homes, schools, and even outdoors. Some of these objects include chemicals, medications, and hot surfaces.

Sharp objects are items that have a pointed or edged part that can cut or pierce. These objects can cause serious injuries if not handled carefully. Some examples of sharp objects include scissors, knives, and needles.

Examples of Harmful Objects and Sharp Objects

Harmful Objects

There are many harmful objects around us, and it’s important to be aware of them. Some common examples include:

1. Cleaning Products: These can be harmful if ingested or if they come into contact with the skin. Always ask an adult before using cleaning products.
2. Medications: Pills or liquids that are meant for adults and can be harmful if taken without supervision. Never take medicine without asking an adult.
3. Hot Surfaces: Stove, iron, or any items that can cause burns if touched. Stay away from hot surfaces and always ask an adult for help.
4. Electrical Appliances: Items like a hot iron or a plugged-in toaster that can be dangerous if not handled properly. Never touch electrical appliances without asking an adult.
