Using Sparklers On Bonfire Night These are often viewed as being harmless but they do burn at fierce temperatures. Sparklers should not be given to anyone under the age of five. To a young child, the heat from a sparkler is equivalent to the heat from a welding torch. Safety rules for sparklers • Never give them to young children under five • Always wear gloves with sparklers, preferably leather ones • Hold it at arms length while an adult lights it for you • Never wave it about near someone else as you could burn them • Never hold a baby in your arms when you are holding a sparkler • When the sparkler has finished, put it into a bucket of cold water straight away and leave it there.
