Bonfire Night
Why do we celebrate Bonfire Night?
We learnt all about how Guy Fawkes tried to explode the Houses Of Parliament and King James with gunpowder.
How do we celebrate Bonfire Night?
- Bonfires (sometimes with a 'Guy' doll on the top)
- Fireworks
- Sparklers
What can we do to stay safe whilst celebrating?
- Keep pets inside - they will probably get scared.
- Hold sparklers out in front of you and wear gloves.
- Put finished sparklers into a bucket of water or sand.
- Only grown ups touch fireworks.
- Stand well back from bonfires.

- The festival began following the story of Rama and Sita. You can watch the story below.
