What are the best practices for campfire safety

[IraMoyer]

Sure! Here are eight different responses about campfire safety best practices:

**Choose the Right Spot**: Make sure to set up your campfire in a designated fire pit or a clear area away from tents, trees, and anything flammable. Safety first!

**Keep It Small**: A small fire is easier to control. You don’t need a bonfire to enjoy s’mores! Plus, it’s less likely to get out of hand.

**Have Water Ready**: Always keep a bucket of water or a fire extinguisher nearby. You never know when you might need to put out a flare-up!

[RoninBurgess]

**Never Leave It Unattended**: Seriously, don’t walk away from the fire. Keep an eye on it, especially if there are kids or pets around.

[ChrisPatel]

**Extinguish Properly**: When you’re done, douse the fire with water and stir the ashes to make sure it’s completely out. You don’t want to leave any embers behind!

**Check the Weather**: Windy days can be a fire hazard. If it’s super windy, it might be a good idea to skip the campfire altogether.

**Use Only Wood**: Stick to burning only wood. No plastics, trash, or other weird stuff that can release toxic fumes or cause explosions!
