Coughs colds pneumonia poster
Overview
Who is the poster for? Educators of many kinds, parents & children aged 10-14.
• Where might it be used? Schools, at home, health clinics, children’s clubs, religious groups etc.
• Is it enough for children to learn the messages? The messages are designed to be ‘doorways’ to discussion & action. They are for children to understand & use, not just to memorise.
• Why are the faces of the people on the poster multi-ethnic? Children for Health has a global audience, so we use multi-ethnic faces on our posters.
• How do I use the messages? Be creative! Focus on one topic for a week, month or term!
• What is the Rainbow Stick? When a child learns & shares a message & returns with a story about how they shared that message, a teacher or other adult rewards the child with a strip of coloured fabric to tie to their stick. Children for Health has 100 messages & every child can leave primary school holding their Rainbow Stick with 100 coloured ‘ribbons’ tied on it showing everyone that they know 100 health messages.
