Stove/Burner: always let the adult that is helping you supervise when preheating the oven or turning on the burner. If you have an electric stove vs. gas stove, make sure to turn off the burner all the way.
-
Pans: pot and pan handles may be hot. Use a potholder or oven mitts to keep your hands safe. Also, make sure pan handles are facing to the side when they are heating on the stove to avoid accidentally bumping/knocking them over.
