Planning for the holidays is a busy and joyful time. But all of the decorations, extra electrical cords and the parade of people going in and out of your home calls for more safety precautions to help you make this holiday season safe and happy for you and your family.

Here's a checklist for the home holiday safety:

·          

• Ask a friend or neighbor to watch your house if you plan to spend the holidays away from home.  
• If you display a live Christmas tree or live greenery, select the freshest possible. A moist tree is less likely to catch fire.
• Place trees a safe distance from vents and any heat source that may dry the tree. Inspect the tree for dryness daily.
• Inspect all holiday light wiring. Defective, worn or frayed electrical wiring should be thrown away. Also, be sure to use fixtures specifically designed for outdoor use if you decorate your house, trees or yard.
• Use no more than three light sets on any one extension cord. Also, don't run electrical cords under rugs. Be sure all lights are turned off before you go to bed or leave the house.
• Place candles and other open flames away from decorations. Never leave burning candles unattended and always supervise children when burning candles.
• Keep a fire extinguisher near your Christmas tree.  Make sure your family has a fire emergency escape plan.  In case of fire, leave your home and call for help from a neighbor's home.
• When buying artificial decorations, check for "flameproof" or "fire retardant" qualities.
