What Should a Fire Safety Poster Say About Clothes Catching Fire?

This poster topic teaches children what to do when clothing catches fire. It explains Stop, Drop, and Roll, why running is dangerous, how classmates should seek adult help, what to do after the flames are out, and how to arrange the information in a clear visual layout.

Direct Answer

A poster about clothing catching fire should make Stop, Drop, and Roll its main message. Tell readers to stop running, drop to the ground, cover the face with both hands, and roll repeatedly until the flames are out while calling for help. Afterward, move away from danger, ask an adult for help, cool the burn with clean cool running water when safe, and never apply toothpaste, grease, or ice.

Make Stop, Drop, and Roll the Visual Center

The main purpose of this poster is to help students remember the correct actions quickly. Place three large numbered drawings in the center and label them Stop, Drop, and Roll.

  1. Stop: Do not run. Stop moving and call loudly for help.
  2. Drop: Get down on the ground and cover the face with both hands.
  3. Roll: Roll back and forth to smother the flames until they are out.

Keep each caption short, and make sure decorations do not hide the body positions or step numbers.

Add a Clear “Never Do This” Warning Box

A red warning panel can compare unsafe choices with the correct response. This gives the poster a strong safety focus and helps teachers discuss common mistakes with students.

  • Do not run, because moving air can feed the flames.
  • Do not hide where no one can find you; call for a teacher, parent, or another adult.
  • Do not try to beat out the flames with bare hands.
  • Do not spray a fire extinguisher at close range toward a person's face or body.

Show How a Classmate Can Help

Create a small section titled “Help the Safe Way.” Tell the person to stop, drop, and roll, then call an adult immediately. In an emergency, call the local fire service and clearly describe the location, the fire, and whether anyone is hurt. If a suitable fire blanket is available, an adult can use it according to safety instructions.

Add a memorable reminder: Keep a safe distance, get help quickly, and never rush into danger.

Explain What to Do After the Fire Is Out

Once the flames are out, move away from the hazard. When it is safe, cool the burn with clean cool running water. Do not apply toothpaste, sauces, grease, or ice. If clothing is stuck to the skin, do not pull it away; leave it for medical professionals to handle.

  • Tell a teacher, parent, or another responsible adult immediately.
  • Contact emergency medical services or seek medical care as needed.
  • Keep the person warm without placing dirty material on the burn.

Guide the Eye with a Flame-Shaped Flow

For a landscape page, place “Why Running Is Dangerous” on the left, reserve the largest center area for the three action drawings, and use the right side for helping others and basic burn care. Red, orange, and yellow can highlight the title, while pale blue or gray text boxes keep the page bright and readable.

Small fire blanket, emergency phone, and warning-triangle icons can fill the corners. Add a short line such as “Do not run—drop and roll until the flames are gone.” After planning the content, students and parents can continue in the Zhihui Shouchaobao WeChat mini program to choose a layout, organize sections, and make the poster.
