Summer is here and the rivers are rising. We must stay away from rivers and lakes. The wild river water is deep and swift. You can't see what's under the water. The water might just sweep you away.

So, it's best to stay away from them. If you want to swim or play near water, always have your parents supervise you. And remember, never go near wild waters alone.

Safety first. Always follow these rules to protect yourself during summer when near rivers or lakes.
