IT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN IN PURPOSE

ENSURING THE FIRE SAFETY OF YOUR

HOUSING

Fires can happen to anyone. The only way to save the kids is to teach them fire safety. This should be the responsibility of every parent. They need to make sure the kids know what to do. Tell them about a possible fire. The discussion will be made easier with a map of your house. It doesn't matter how well you draw, as long as the child understands. Tell or show the children what sounds they will hear if a fire alarm is triggered. Talk about different ways run away from the house depending on the location of the fire. Make sure you check the following:
Safe place to meet.
A neighborhood home that is safe for children to go to for help. (tell your neighbor also)
Where to call.
How to get out.
Do not open the door if the handle is hot.
Never go back inside.
(This is important. So they can run back, for example, after the cat) Ask questions to the children. To make sure they understand everything. Children need to learn these steps. Ask them:
Why do you think a fire could start?
What to do when the fire alarm goes off?
Ask if they have any questions. Practice will be best. Children will feel safer and less scared if the fire does break out. Repeat this at least once a year. Hints and Warnings
Check smoke detectors every six months. Place fire extinguishers in your home. Maintain safety ladders in multi-storey buildings. For more safety information visit your local fire department. gas equipment with a gas supply organization. Inspect your house (apartment) for fire safety.
