Make Time to Listen…Take Time to Talk about Inhalants

Talking to 6-11 year olds about Inhalants

Discuss the purpose of common household products. Emphasize that when they are not used appropriately, certain fumes or gases may harm the body and make them sick.

  • Discuss what fumes are and what effects they may have on a healthy body
  • Play a game, "Is it safe to smell or touch?"
  • Read product labels together, discuss directions, answer any questions honestly
  • Suggest opening windows or using fans when products call for proper ventilation
  • Teach by example- show your child that you use household products according to the directions
  • Monitor your child's activities
  • Look for "teachable moments"
