SCRIPT
1. Describe the given picture and possible hazards at home in the different places of
the house.
 POSSIBLE HAZARDS AT HOME
BURN CASES Stoves, gas lighters and all flammable
liquid should always be out of reach of
children. The kitchen is no place for them.
There may be a coffee pot sticking out, the
oven open with residual heat.

DROWNING AND ASPHYXIATION
Children should not play with small objects
(toys, pencil erasers, coins, notebooks,
buttons) because children tend to take them
to their mouths, with the risk of suffocation
or choking.
 GAS INHALATION Do not leave the stove on without
supervision as it is a life-threatening risk.
The combustion of hydrocarbons produces
carbon monoxide, the inhalation of which
almost immediately leads to death. For this
reason, parking lots and places in the
house, such as the kitchen, where gas is
used should be ventilated.

INJURIES WITH KNIVES Do not leave it at the children’s disposal.

Watch for punches, forks that can cause
serious injuries if used carelessly.

ELECTROCUTING LINES
Most power accidents are due to jobs
without the proper knowledge and tools,
leading to short circuits.

There are cases in which when trying to

PROCESSOR INJURIES remove falling objects such as the coffee
maker the child tries to remove them with
it connected and the blades seriously injure
their fingers.

The same happens with food processors,

and even with the pallets of washing
machines in case of mishandling,
especially by children.

solutions.
