The most common accidents are with fire and hot water. Small children often touch pots of boiling water on the stove. The pots fall over and the hot water falls on the children and burns them. Some children like to play with fire. They enjoy striking matches or throwing things on the fire to make it burn brightly. If the fire gets too big, it gets out of control. Then the house catches fire. It is very dangerous to play with matches. When a child strikes a match, the flame soon burns near his fingers. Then he drops the match on the floor. Many houses catch fire in this way. Some kinds of clothing burn very easily. Many children have been badly burned because they have stood near a fire and their clothing has suddenly caught fire.
