Here are some simple rules to remember:

  1. Know Your Escape Plan: Make sure you know two ways to get out of every room in your house. Practice your family’s fire drill so you know what to do if there’s a fire.

  2. Stop, Drop, and Roll: If your clothes catch on fire, stop where you are, drop to the ground, and roll back and forth to put out the flames.

  3. Stay Low and Go: If there’s smoke in the room, stay close to the ground where the air is cleaner and crawl to your exit.

  4. Don’t Hide: If there’s a fire, don’t hide under the bed or in a closet. It’s safer to go outside and find a safe spot to wait for help.

  5. Don’t Play with Fire: Matches, lighters, and candles are not toys. Never play with them and always tell an adult if you find them.

By following these rules, you can help keep yourself and your family safe in case of a fire. Always remember, being prepared and knowing what to do can make a big difference in staying safe.
