A three-year-old tears red and orange tissue into flames and glues them down thick. A five-year-old cuts the truck from a rectangle, a square, and circles, then dials the paper phone and recites your address. The puppet rides to the station. ## Start here: three fire safety crafts that always work [![Tissue paper flames, an easy fire safety craft for preschoolers ages 3 to 5](https://kindergarten-prep.com/hs-fs/hubfs/crafts/C095-4.webp?width=900&height=675&name=C095-4.webp)**Tissue paper flames***Tear and glue, a three can do it*](https://kindergarten-prep.com/blog/fire-safety-crafts-for-preschoolers#c095)[![911 phone craft, an easy fire safety craft for preschoolers ages 3 to 5](https://kindergarten-prep.com/hs-fs/hubfs/crafts/C314-2.webp?width=900&height=675&name=C314-2.webp)**911 phone craft***Press 9-1-1 while you glue*](https://kindergarten-prep.com/blog/fire-safety-crafts-for-preschoolers#c314)[![Shape fire truck, an easy fire safety craft for preschoolers ages 3 to 5](https://kindergarten-prep.com/hs-fs/hubfs/crafts/C231-2.webp?width=900&height=675&name=C231-2.webp)**Shape fire truck***Shapes and a fire truck in one craft*](https://kindergarten-prep.com/blog/fire-safety-crafts-for-preschoolers#c231) All 5 Easy for 3 year olds No paint ## 5 fire safety crafts for preschoolers, with pictures [![Paper bag dalmatian puppet, an easy fire safety craft for preschoolers ages 3 to 5](https://kindergarten-prep.com/hs-fs/hubfs/crafts/C120-1.webp?width=900&height=675&name=C120-1.webp)](https://kindergarten-prep.com/hubfs/crafts/C120-1.webp) ### 1.

No exact cutting, no small pieces, and the glue stick does the rest. ## Talking about fire safety while you craft Start with the tissue paper flames. Tearing red, orange and yellow tissue is something a three year old can do alone, and a glue stick keeps it clean. The 911 phone is the craft with a job. Once the buttons are on, ask your child to press 9, 1, 1 a few times and say their name and street out loud. For the shape fire truck, cut the rectangle, square and circles yourself for a three year old and name each shape as it goes on. A five year old can cut them from an outline. The dalmatian and firefighter puppets are for play afterward. Keep them in a box with a toy fire truck and the talk about getting out of the house comes up on its own.
