Hey Kids!
I hope you enjoyed October's Fire Prevention tips. For the month of November, we'll focus on kitchen safety.

  1. Always stay 3 feet from the stove when helping in the kitchen.
  2. Remind the grown-ups to keep pot/pan handles turned inside.
  3. Never try to cook without a grown-up.
  4. Remind grown-ups they should have a home fire extinguisher in the kitchen.
  5. If you are accidentally burned, do not use water to cool the burn. Have a grown-up check it.

Put these into practice so you'll remember how to be safe when getting a snack or helping grown ups make dinner.

From your pals at the Barnardsville Fire Department.
