Fireworks are extremely dangerous and are not to be used irresponsibly; a firework can move at speeds as high as 150mph. Messing about with fireworks is also illegal and could lead to some big implications if you are caught misusing them.

When the sparkler has finish simply dispose of it correctly in water.
Finally, it is important to keep warm, summer has been and gone so make sure you wrap up warm. Make sure you wear thick socks, a hat, gloves and scarf and plenty of knitwear. You may also want to wear wellies in case it rains or the ground is muddy.
