Hence, it is important to ensure that your kids are taught about safety at home.

With the festive season in full bloom and pandemic still hovering in many parts of the country, it is of utmost importance that you know and teaches some essential tips to keep safe. It is also essential to keep your house clean and sanitized regularly, especially with guests meeting and greeting in regular intervals during the festive season.

Here are some other important steps that you should know and follow to safeguard your home from uninvited situations this festive season:

  1. Diwali is the “Festival of Lights” and every home is well lit and decorated with diyas and candles during the season. However, if not taken proper care, diyas can cause fires and major damage to your home and your family. So, how can you avoid such calamities? Here are some ways-
  • Keep lamps, diyas and candles away from combustible materials such as gasoline, books, plastics, electrical wires and more. With everyone also carrying and keeping sanitisers today, ensure they are not placed near the diyas and candles.
  • Avoid placing them at the doorways or less spacious corners and staircases. This will ensure a safe environment for your kids and pets who may end up burning themselves when running and playing.

2. Despite the ban, firecrackers are still one major part of Diwali celebrations, especially with kids and teens around. Here are what you can follow to avoid any unwanted situations:

  • When buying crackers, try to buy them in fewer numbers. This is help ensure limited usage.
  • Allow kids to burn crackers only under your supervision or of any adult. And if you have pets, keep them away from crackers and preferably inside during the cracker bursting time.
  • Store a bucket of water or a fire extinguisher in case of emergency or accident nearby.
  • Make sure your kids wash their hands properly with soap and water after burning crackers.
  • Throw burnt crackers in a proper place and burn them in an open space.

3. Even if you don’t want to burn loud crackers, it’s possible that your neighbours will. For the elderly, babies and pets, loud noise can be uncomfortable. So, these are what you can do:

  • Try to avoid going outside if you are allergic to smoke. Ensure all windows and doors are closed when your neighbours are bursting crackers to avoid harmful smoke.
  • Keep your elders, kids and pets inside with doors and windows closed to minimize the noise from the crackers.

4. Wearing new clothes is a significant part of the Diwali celebration. But choosing the right clothing becomes crucial:

  • Avoid synthetic clothes, especially when lighting diyas and burning crackers as it catches fire easily. Prefer wearing cotton clothes.

5. Every festival is incomplete without sweets and delicacies. And in today’s world, the degradation of quality due to its high demand is common.

  • Try making homemade delicacies as nothing can be more hygienic and healthier than homemade foods.
  • Avoid consuming or bringing home street foods.
  • Ensure you and your kids wash your hands properly with soap and water before meals.
  • Keep your foods covered at all times when they are left unattended.

It’s not just about being cautious around diyas and firecrackers when it comes to safety. Many other factors also play an important role during the festive season such as maintaining the environment and keeping the streets clean and pollution-free.
