Welephant is now part of the Children's Fire and Burn Trust
whose website can be found by following this link.

Welephant is here with his own fire safety education web site for you to enjoy. Find out more about fire safety and other related topics or just have fun - play Welephant's special 'stay safe' games and discover more about fire safety in your home.

You'll find stories, games, fire safety information and tips, music, speech, animations, colouring book pictures and downloads, quizzes, interactive fire risk assessment questionnaires, devising a fire plan, things to do,
print outs and plenty more fun besides - all with fire safety in mind.

If you are planning to have your own fireworks at a celebration or party,
it is very important that you and your children brush up on your Firework Code.
Go to Welephant's special firework story in the stories menu (the link is just below).
There you'll also find the Firework Code to print out and keep. There's so much to see and do!

It will help you decide where to position smoke alarms, how to devise an escape plan and some hazards to look out for in your own home. There are games and activities such as a jigsaw, a doodle pad, a word search to print out and much more.
