Fire is very dangerous.It's necessary for us to learn a bit more about fire, especially what to do if we are caught in a fire.
Never try to put out a fire yourself, even if it is a very small one! Get help from your parents or call 119. Tell 119 where you are and what is on fire.
If there is a bit of smoke in you room, keep down close to the floor. There is less smoke down there, so it's easier to breathe and see where you are going.
If you don't, the smoke may kill you before the fire does.
Test the door before you open it. Touch it with the back of your hand near the top. If the door is cool, open it carefully. If the door is hot, do not open!
Try to find a different way out. Most home fires start at night when people are asleep. So, always close your bedroom door before you sleep. It can keep the fire out.
If you can, get out your home soon.Do not stop to pick up anything.The fire can spread quickly in a few seconds!
Never use the lift during a fire. Always use the stairs. A lift may stop at a floor where thefire is buming.It may also go wrong and keep you inside.
Never go back into a buming building! Even if you have left your pet or favourte toy inside, do not go back for it. Don't worry about your pets. Animals have a very good smell. They often get out of buildings before people !
