Around your house there might be things that are dangerous, especially in the bathroom and the kitchen.
You should never open bottles or containers if you don't know what is in them. Things like bleach or washing liquid can be very bad for you if you get them on your skin or in your mouth.
Watch the video so see what Pip and Declan learn about things that can be dangerous.
MUSIC
Pip is singing while washing her hands.
PIP: This is the way you wash your hands, wash your hands, wash your hands. This is the way you wash your hands before you have your lunch!
Declan arrives with a bottle of soap that he's sniffing.
DECLAN: Mmm!! This soap smells so good! … I wonder what it tastes like?
PIP: NO NO DECLAN!
DECLAN: What!?
PIP: Don't drink that!
DECLAN: But, its strawberry flavour! Look!
Declan shows Pip the picture of a strawberry on the soap bottle.
PIP: Nooo its strawberry scented not strawberry flavour! (GASPS) That could be… dangerous!
BOTH GASP
DING
The narrator talks about things that are dangerous while we see an animation of someone looking at bleach and then taking medication.
NARRATOR: Pip's Right! You need to be careful of liquids in the bathroom and the kitchen. Bleach and sprays are things that you shouldn't touch as they can hurt you.
NARRATOR: Medicine can be good for you if you are sick. But you should never ever ever take medicine that wasn't given to you by an adult, because it can make you really unwell.
DING
DECLAN: From now on, I'll only use soap for my hands.
PIP: That's a good idea Declan. Now, would you rather have - strawberry flavoured soap or soap flavoured strawberries?
DECLAN: Aahh, that’s a tough question. I know it’s not a good idea to eat soap, but if the strawberries don’t taste like strawberries and they taste like soap, are they still strawberries? Would I like them? Hmm. Are soap flavoured strawberries juicy?
Pip sighs and walks away while Declan continues talking.
DECLAN: And what type of soap are we talking about?.. Is it like the hard type of soap, or this type of soap like the squidgy type soap? …
DECLAN CONTINUES
