Wildfire Prevention Conducting School Programs Guide - National ...

We will emphasize to them that fire is
DANGEROUS and something that adults must use
and supervise.
We will then let the children discuss whether or
not all fire is bad. We will tell them that there are
Good Fires and Bad Fires. It is important to remind
them that fire is dangerous, it CAN hurt them and
they should NEVER play with fire.
Not all fire is bad. We will ask them to give an
example of a Good Fire. We will also give them a
few examples to introduce the concept of good
fire, e.g. fireplace, birthday candles or campfire.
Similarly, we will give them some examples of
Bad Fire and discuss the differences with them,
letting them make the distinction between good
and bad fire. Fire safety will be stressed as will the
concept that whether a fire is good or bad, ALL
fire is dangerous and must only be used or
supervised by adults.
