- Never allow children to play with or ignite fireworks.
- Follow warnings and instructions.
- Be sure others are out of range before lighting fireworks.
- Only light fireworks on a smooth, flat surface away from houses, dry leaves, and flammable materials.
- Never try to re-light fireworks that have not fully functioned.
- Keep a bucket of water handy.
