Children's prank with fire

Almost all young children show an increased interest in fire, not fully realizing its potential danger. At the age of three to five years, children in their games often repeat adults, imitating their actions, work. The desire for independence is especially evident when children are left alone at home.

There are cases when adults, due to various circumstances, are forced to leave children for some time without supervision. You can not be sure that, left alone at home, the child will not dare to play with a box of matches, will not want to set fire to paper, will not make a bonfire.

It is especially dangerous if children stay in locked apartments or rooms. In case of fire, they will not be able to leave the dangerous room outside.

It is not uncommon for a prank to turn into hooliganism. For the sake of entertainment, the guys let burning "airplanes" from the roofs of houses and balconies, set fire to mailboxes, door panels of apartments, throw lit smoke bombs into the entrances, without thinking at all what consequences such entertainment can lead to.

What you need to do in order to avoid a fire from a child's prank with fire:

- tell children about fire-safe behavior;

- be an example in all situations related to compliance with fire safety rules;

- do not leave matches in a place accessible to children;

- do not instruct children to light stoves, gas stoves, or turn on household appliances on their own;

- make sure that children do not light fires;

- when leaving home, do not leave young children unattended by adults;

- organize an interesting leisure time for your child.

Teach your child the correct actions in case of fire.

If a fire or a sign of gorenje (smoke, elevated temperature, burning smell, etc.) is detected, a child of any age should immediately leave the room.

In case of a fire, it is necessary to inform adults about it or to the fire extinguishing service "101", to the rescue service "112".
