3 Ways to Talk to Kids About Fire Safety
Holidays and celebrations often include good fires, including birthday candles, fireworks, campfires and fireplaces. Enjoyment of these good fires, combined with a kid’s natural curiosity about fire, can set up a deadly scenario, especially when a child finds matches or lighters. Children ages 5 and under make up 63 percent of fatal fire deaths, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Most of those deaths are caused by a child playing with found lighters and matches. The United States Fire Administration (USFA) encourages parents to start fire safety education early. Children in preschool and kindergarten are the age group that engages in dangerous fire play, and are often seriously injured or killed by the fires, according to the NFPA.

Arranged marriages remain popular in many parts of the world, including the United States, as a way of providing a secure relationship to shepherd future generations. Love, in an arranged marriage, grows through companionship and shared lives.
