Subject: The poster is designed to look like a wall growth record with lines to represent inches and red lines to indicate the 2 foot through 6 foot heights. A large flower appears at the top of the "ruler", and several small drawings of children playing are scattered throughout the poster. The right side lists ways of protecting children from environmental risks and they include: protecting children from lead poisoning and carbon monoxide poisoning; protecting children from too much sun; methods of helping children breathe easier; keeping pesticides and toxic chemicals from children; protecting children from high levels of radon and mercury; and protecting children from polluted water and contaminated fish. Also along the right side, towards the bottom, is a larger drawing of a young boy blowing bubbles.
