Especially when they're under the age of five
Simple hints could help keep them alive
There are even some foods they should not eat
Listen close so we won't have to repeat
Round and hard foods like grapes and candy
Hot dogs, popcorn, raw carrots taste dandy
But choking is no joking matter

Chew this over ... digest it well
Protect the ones you love ... teach them well
Even some items around your home
Can end up in a place where the children roam
Safety pins, nails, tacks and screws
Marbles, coins, even batteries you use
Can put your child in harms way
Make a safety check put them away today

When we talk about choking there is no joking
Parents need to be alert
First aid is different for an infant and a child
Keep them both in your mind filed
So you can spring to action in emergencies
Knowing just what to do could save a life you'll see
Cause choking is no joking matter
