For Children

Why us?

• You are young. You are in a stage of growth, both physically and intellectually.
• You may be able to accept new ideals, new knowledge faster than our parents are.
• Or maybe you have to take care of yourselves since your parents are busy on something else. 

What are you talking about?

• Lead, a type of heavy metal that is able to cause big troubles for children in growing stage.
• Do you drink milk? Yes. You do. You want to get more calcium by drinking milk. But, lead goes where calcium goes. So, lead is going to damage your bones and brains.

Where does the lead come from?

• Sorts of places. But, most importantly, from lead-based paint.

Does the paint in our house have lead?

• Was the house built before 1978?
• Has the house ever been repainted?
• Possible if you have yes for above questions.

Have you seen your younger brothers and sisters do something like the drawing?

• Stop them when they try to taste paint chips from the windowsills.
