Fire Prevention for Pre-teens and Teens At Home

Kids this age have reached a stage of mental development that helps them avoid non-fire burns. While this age group is at a much lower risk of dying in a fire, home fires remain a concern, and older children are more likely to intentionally set fires.

Preteens may want to prove themselves as responsible, but they might not know what to do in an emergency. Preparation and education are key elements of preventing fire tragedies, and teaching preteens about fire safety can prevent accidents and injuries.
