Simply trim and fold a sheet of construction paper to make the matchbook. (Pattern included.)

When everyone is done, review and discuss the tips. 

For writing practice, have older students make up a list of their own tips, or have them write additional advice on the back.

Older students can write several fire safety facts on the front, back or rim. 

You could also make extra badges for children to wear.   They say: "I'm fire safety smart.  I'm alert, so I won't get hurt. "

For extra reinforcement, have students don their hat, pick a partner and give each other fire safety advice.

Older students can simply make the larger flame and use it to write 3 different fire safety ideas on it.

I used it on 3 poster options to help children remember to call 9-1-1 in an emergeny.

Both places I found the song posted, did not know the author.  It was simply too cute not to share.  I hope you enjoy it too!
