A retro-styled magazine cover designed to resemble an educational publication from the early 1970s fills the frame. At the top, large bold lettering reads “Critical Developmental Learning,” set in warm brown serif type with a soft orange outline. Beneath it, the date “September 1972” appears, along with a price of seventy-five cents in the upper corner. The headline below the title reads “Stop, Drop, and Roll!” presented in large red lettering, evoking the tone of a safety lesson. The cover is arranged like a collage of illustrated panels, each depicting children and an adult in bright, cheerful mid-century illustration style. In the upper left panel, a smiling blonde girl with two high pigtails walks while holding a large pair of scissors in her hand. She wears a small orange skirt, white shirt, and vest, and appears carefree as she moves across a simple pastel background. In the center top panel, a young boy stands waist-deep in a patch of quicksand with his arms raised in alarm, surrounded by sparse twig-like plants sticking out of the ground. To the right, a portrait of a friendly adult woman with styled auburn hair smiles encouragingly, suggesting a teacher or guide. Below the panels, bold green text reads “Running with Scissors!” while another headline nearby reads “Strategies for Quicksand.” Dominating the lower portion of the cover is a larger illustration of a young boy in an orange sweater and blue pants positioned on the grass on his hands and knees, demonstrating the posture associated with “stop, drop, and roll.” Nearby, an adult figure kneels partially in frame, while a small girl with dark braided hair watches with her hand covering her mouth in surprise.
