Be careful this season with sparklers and fireworks. Harsh reality here from the Child Accident Prevention Trust

A sparkler!

Families often see sparklers as a relatively safe way to involve young children in the excitement of fireworks events. But that’s not true. Every year they cause children devastating burn injuries.

Sparklers burn hotter than boiling water. They can even burn hot enough to melt some metals.

If you’re going to use sparklers, treat them with caution and remember:

🎇They’re not recommended for children under 5
🎇 Wear gloves and keep the sparkler at arm’s length, as sparks can fly and ignite clothing
🎇 You may want to put the sparkler in a carrot to make it easier to hold
🎇 Only hold one sparkler at a time
🎇 Teach children not to wave sparklers near anyone else or run around while holding them
🎇 Once sparklers are out, put them in a bucket of water as they stay very hot

Children learn by watching the people around them. 💛

From the way you speak to the things you do, your children often mirror your behaviours, including how you use screens.

Be mindful of your screen time around your children and lead by example. Show them the importance of finding a healthy balance between screen time and real world moments.
