Fireworks safe (recommended) for children

Fireworks safe (recommended) for children

It is a commonly known fact that fireworks are as safe as the person who is handling them. If you exercise caution while bursting them, you are comparatively safer; even a moment of diversion could be unsafe for you in the form of physical injury from mere bruises and cuts to amputations and even fatality. There are some crackers which have been deemed safe for children since all these fall under the category of small effects' consumer crackers, unlike wedding fireworks . Essentially, the people who burst them will have the joy of being the one to ignite the fireworks as against Christmas crackers which require professional assistance. However, any fireworks handled by children should only be with adult permission. Children below the age of 14 should not be allowed to play with firecrackers unless there is adult supervision as there is a minimal risk of burns even with the simplest of fireworks.

Rockets are basically fireworks on rods which when placed in bottles shoot up in the air with a whistling sound and burst into colourful sparks. They are fun to watch and safe to play with, even though the child lighting it has to be monitored. Since they are cheap fireworks that can shoot up at a great speed, care must be taken to not orient them towards people's houses or yards and away from one's own face. Smoke balls and Saturn missiles produce pretty much the same effect except that smoke balls stop with a beautiful coloured smoke while Saturn missiles take it up a notch and produce whistles and rocket effects in the sky. Though they produce a significant amount of smoke, they are considered safer than other firecrackers. They are available in all stores which offer fireworks for sale.

Night time crackers are generally considered to be safer because these firecrackers produce visual effects rather than just explosive sounds. When you buy fireworks online, you would see that these are the ones that make most of the product menu. Take for example Roman candles ; they consist of a long tube that throws out showers of balls of light. Depending on how much you pay for a roman candle, you will get between 10 to 200 shots. Possibly the simplest of all indoor fireworks are sparklers because they are just magnesium rods that flicker and sparkle when lit. Unlike other crackers, they do not come with the associated risk of explosion or misfire.
