It's all very well to decorate our homes with candles and create a soft, glowing atmosphere. But above all comes safety as it's certainly not advisable 'to play with fire'. We have to be extra cautious with candles placed in children's rooms. We must avoid burning candles in a poorly ventilated room especially away from doors and windows with curtains as a little spark can start a fire and cause a fatal accident.
