Fireworks can bring excitement and joy to any celebration, but safety should always come first. One of the simplest yet most important precautions is to keep a bucket of water or a hose nearby whenever fireworks are being used. Whether it’s for soaking used fireworks, extinguishing accidental fires, or dealing with misfires, having water on hand can prevent small incidents from becoming serious emergencies. Fireworks should always be handled by a responsible adult, lit one at a time, and never re-lit if they fail to ignite. With basic safety measures—especially a reliable water source—you can help ensure a fun and accident-free celebration for everyone.
