Fireplace Safety Tips for Kids
Nothing quite creates winter ambiance like a log in the fireplace with everyone gathered around to appreciate its warmth and pleasing light. Of course, playing with fire is dangerous for children, so please remember these tips from the American Academy of Pediatrics before you light your hearth.
Minimize your child's chance of burns from the hot glass front of some fireplaces. Safety screens can be installed to reduce the risk of burns.
Put fireplace tools and accessories out of a young child's reach. Also, remove any lighters and matches.
