According to World Health Organization data, approximately 10% of all unintentional injury deaths are due to fire-related burns. In Malaysia, burn represent about 5.6% (745 cases) of all injuries among children. As childhood burn was not considered as a child health problem comparing to other childhood illnesses, parents and children tends to have less priority in overcome this issue. This highlights the need to transfer the knowledge especially to the children on the burn prevention. By implementing this module on preventing fire, burns and scalds injury among children, knowledge on main causes of burns and their immediate management can be improved at young age.
