Thanksgiving Tip:
Have a “kid-free zone” of at least 3-feet around the stove and areas where hot food or drink is prepared or carried.
Get your children involved with fire and life safety by cutting out and assembling the Kid-Free Zone marker.

Make sure kids stay away from hot food and liquids. The steam or splash from vegetables, gravy or coffee could cause severe burns.

Thanksgiving Tip:
Turn pot handles toward the back of the stove so no one can bump or pull them over.

Thanksgiving Tip:
Keep a pan lid or baking sheet nearby. Use it to cover the pan if it catches on fire. This will put out the fire.

Thanksgiving Tip:
Watch what you are cooking. Fires start when the heat is too high. If you see any smoke or the grease starts to boil, turn the burner off.

During the Thanksgiving holiday, unattended cooking was by far the leading contributing factor in cooking fires and fire deaths. In case you get distracted set a timer to remind yourself that you have food cooking.
