Fire
Safety
Teach your
child about
fire prevention
as early as
possible.
Make it clear
that fire
safety is
not a game
but serious
business.
Here are some
basic fire
safety tips
for all families
to remember.
- Practice
fire drills
with the
entire family.
- Teach
your child
how to stop,
drop and
roll (drop
to the ground
and roll
back and
forth) if
clothing
catches
fire.
- Show your
child where
emergency
exits are
located
in the home,
and teach
him how
to crawl
on the ground
toward an
exit to
avoid smoke
inhalation.
- Show older
children
where emergency
rope or
chain ladders
are kept,
and teach
them how
to use them.
- Teach
your child
never to
play with
matches.
Store matches
in the refrigerator
or another
cool place
that is
out of your
child’s
reach.
