Fireworks

Every year, hundreds of kids get hurt by fireworks and sparklers. We suggest that you don’t play with them at all. And we’re not the only ones.

In some places, playing with fireworks is against the law. And even though playing with sparklers isn’t illegal, they can still hurt you. They get so hot when they burn that they can catch clothes on fire.

Since fireworks are pretty cool to watch, you can still enjoy them by going to a park or some other public place to watch displays put on by experts. This way you can have fun and be safe!
