Safety Tips to Keep Children Safe From Fire

 

bullet Never use lighters or matches as a source of amusement for children; they may imitate you.
bullet If your child expresses curiosity about fire or has been playing with fire, calmly but firmly explain that matches and lighters are tools for adults only.
bullet Use only lighters designed with child-resistant features. Remember child-resistant does not mean child proof.
bullet Teach young children to tell an adult if they see matches or lighters, and teach school-age children to bring any matches or lighters to an adult.
bullet Never leave matches or lighters in a bedroom or any place where children may go without supervision.
bullet If you suspect your child is intentionally setting fires or unduly fascinated with fire, get help. Your local fire department, school, or community counseling agency can put you in touch with trained experts.
