It is very important that you explain to your kids the basics of electrical safety but it is also important to teach them in a proper way. Here are gathered some of the tips on how you can teach them:

• Kids love to watch YouTube videos, so make this safety lesson fun for them! 
• Use online games and guides to teach in a fun way
• One of the best ways to make sure kids follow the rules when it comes to electrical safety is to help them better understand how it actually works. Therefore we advise reading some books about electricity together.
  

Now that your kids have a foundation of knowledge about how electricity works, set some hard and fast safety rules and talk about them together. Write them down or print them out and hang them somewhere visible, like the fridge. If your kids forget one of the rules, remind them about the list and why it is so important to take electrical safety seriously.

Here are a few suggested electrical safety rules for your home:

1. Don’t put fingers or objects into outlets.
2. Don’t use electronics near water or when your hands are wet.
3. Don’t plug too many things into the same power strip or extension cord.
4. Don’t yank cords when you unplug them.
5. Don’t touch outdoor transformer boxes.
6. Don’t fly kites or drones near power lines.
7. Don’t climb trees near power lines.
8. Ask an adult for help when using new electronics.
