Bonfire night festivities are due to start this weekend! To help you make the most of the celebration while keeping your little ones safe, we've put together a handy guide with our top tips for a worry-free evening. 🫶🏼🎆🤍 

Ensure children wear gloves when holding sparklers

Sparklers may be small, but they pack a lot of heat! Make sure your children wear gloves when handling them. Not only does this protect their hands from the heat, but it also adds an extra layer of safety.

Ensure young children wear ear protection

The loud bangs and crackles of fireworks can be overwhelming for little ears. To keep your children comfortable and protected, ensure they wear ear protection. This simple precaution will allow them to enjoy the spectacle without any discomfort.

Ensure an adult is always present

No matter how old your children are, having a responsible adult present is a must. From supervising firework displays to guiding little ones through sparkler fun, having an adult around ensures quick action in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

Always keep safety equipment nearby

Preparation is key. Make sure you have safety equipment, such as a bucket of water or sand, nearby at all times. This can be used to extinguish sparklers safely or in case of any unexpected incidents. Quick access to safety measures adds an extra layer of protection to your Bonfire Night celebrations. 

So as you gear up for Bonfire Night, let's prioritise safety while creating lasting memories with our loved ones. By following these simple tips, you can ensure that the night is not only filled with dazzling displays but also with laughter, joy, and the warmth of shared moments.
