Theme Think about your favorite outdoor activity. Create a poster educating others on how to stay safe around electricity while participating in it. A few important electrical safety tips for children: Watch out for overhead power lines and electrical equipment. Never climb on or play near them. Never climb trees near power lines. Even if the power lines aren’t touching the tree, they could touch when more weight is added to the branch. Fly kites and model airplanes in large open areas like a park or a field. Stay far away from power lines. If a kite gets stuck in a tree that’s near power lines, don’t climb up to get it. Contact Flint Energies for assistance. Never fly a kite on a cloudy day when a thunderstorm may be approaching. Never climb a utility pole or tower. The electricity carried through this equipment is extremely high voltage and could kill you. Never go into an electric substation for any reason. Electric substations contain high-voltage equipment, which can kill you. Never rescue a pet or retrieve a ball or toy that goes inside. Call Flint Energies instead. Water and electricity are a dangerous combination and should never be used near each other.
