Instructions

1. Setting Up: Choose a safe, clear area for the campfire, away from any trees or combustible materials. Mark out a clear boundary around the fire.
2. Gathering Materials: Assign Squirrels into small groups to collect sticks and twigs. Ensure they know only to collect small, dry pieces of wood (less than shoulder height).

4. Safety Briefing: Explain fire safety rules to the Squirrels and set clear boundaries to keep them safe from the flames.
