Children should be the focus of adults!
While it is not advisable to teach a young child how to extinguish a fire, they should begin learning about fire safety from a very early age.
Parents should initiate fire safety education for their children before they start school, around the age of three or four. Kindergarten teachers and school instructors then reinforce, develop, and deepen the knowledge acquired from parents. In general, a child's fire safety education is divided into two stages: preschool and school.
