Safety is the most important part of the campfire.

  • NEVER build a fire near tents or other flammable items.
  • NEVER start a fire with a flammable liquid such as gas or oil.
  • NEVER leave a fire unattended.
  • Build only a fire the size you need.
  • Make sure you completely extinguish the fire before leaving the campsite.
  • Scatter ashes or ember out.
  • Sprinkle with water and stir with a stick. Repeat until all ashes are out.
  • Drench charred logs.
  • Repeat until all ashes and logs are completely cold.

A campfire can be so relaxing to sit around on a starry night with the crickets chirping and the owls hooting. All of nature wonders are around you and your family. Making memories that you or your family will always remember. 

One thing for sure you do not want anything hazardous to happen so always remember to follow the safety tips on putting out a fire. Remind your children to always be careful while walking around or near the campfire. Be especially careful during dry weather, the sparks from your fire could ignite a fire a short distance from you, which could cause a dangerous situation.
