Even a young child can easily memorize numbers. Teach them the number 101. Explain that this number can be called not only in case of a fire. By dialing 101, you can report any danger, and the dispatcher will promptly forward the information to the appropriate emergency service.

Children should also know by heart the phone numbers of their parents, grandparents, and family friends, so that in case of danger, they can warn relatives or acquaintances. You can create a memo with these phone numbers and hang it in a visible place.

When leaving home, hide matches, lighters, and turn off electrical appliances.

Repeat safety rules to your child as often as possible. Give them a test on their knowledge of these rules. If you notice that your child is neglecting any of them, carefully discuss their mistakes with them, explaining the potential consequences.

Always follow safety rules yourself. By watching you, your child will learn safe behavior at home. If they notice your dismissive attitude towards safety rules, they will also start neglecting them.
