Coloring and Poster Contest
OFFICIAL RULES

COLORING CONTEST Entrants must be in Kindergarten or First grade. Pick up the official coloring page and entry form from any GIANT Pharmacy or print at GiantFoodStores.com.

POSTER CONTEST Entrants must be in Second through Sixth Grade. Pick up an entry form from any Giant Pharmacy or print at GiantFoodStores.com. If you would like to submit your poster on a larger sheet of paper, be sure to include child's name on the poster. In addition, all posters must be accompanied by the official entry form.

For purposes of educating the public about accidental poisonings, one poster will be selected from among the winners and displayed at all GIANT Pharmacies.

Entries should illustrate a message that corresponds to either of the themes listed below. Websites such as poisonprevention.org, cpsc.gov and nsc.org can provide information and ideas. Entries should not include any trademark symbols, brand names or characters.

Poisons: Simple steps save lives.
Simple actions like tightly securing child-resistant closures and making sure poisons are locked or placed out-of-reach, can help prevent poisonings.
Children act fast, so do poisons.
Many incidents happen when adults are momentarily distracted (for example, by a doorbell or phone call). Children act fast, and adults must make sure that household chemicals and medicine are stored away from children at all times.
