3. Safety Burn Awareness Did you know:
A scald is a burn from hot liquid or steam.
Among children under 5 years of age, scalds or contact burns are responsible for 90 percent of burn injuries.
Children have thinner skin than adults which can result in a more severe burn.
The most common places children experience scalds are in the kitchen or dining rooms and in the bathrooms.
The maximum recommended residential water temperature is 120˚F (48˚C).
