If a person is in water they can’t swim in, they will die. Deep water, moving water and ice covered ponds are especially dangerous. We always make sure we swim or skate with an adult or lifeguard.

Electric current could give us terrible burns and stop our hearts. We never play with electrical outlets, cords, or batteries. We never touch metal that could have electricity flowing through it. We keep liquid far from sources of electricity.
Fire can quickly get out of control and destroy a whole house or even a whole neighborhood. We keep fire in places where it goes, like fireplaces, candle holders, and stoves. We do not do things that could let it escape, like throwing our Hanukkah juggling balls near the menorah. Children only use fire if an adult plans and supervises.

If anyone is playing with a gun we leave immediately and find a safe place. A place where someone is playing with a gun is never safe.

Some of the most dangerous things for most kids are cars, guns, stairs, doors, string, fire, water, electricity, and anything that can cover a mouth or nose. We are especially careful of these. We get out of the street when a car is coming.

Almost anything can be dangerous. Whatever the situation we are in, we keep ourselves safe, and we keep the people around us safe.
