ABSTRACT:
A child-resistant package is resistant to being opened by a child because the package challenges the cognitive skills of a child. However, the package can be easily opened by the elderly or the physically impaired. The package includes either one or a plurality of fold lines, and a tear notch extends across only one of the fold lines. The package can be opened by folding along the fold line with the tear notch and then tearing the package along the tear notch. The package may also include a tear strip which extends between the tear notch and the contents of the package. If a child tears the package along the tear strip, the tear notch is removed and the package is disarmed and prevented from being opened.
