Fireworks

Fireworks are things that we use to celebrate special events and occasions. They usually come in the form of loud and colorful explosions in the sky. Fireworks are made up of a cardboard tube with paper on the outside. Inside the cardboard tube are chemicals that, when combined with the burning wick on the outside of the tube, create explosions in the sky with bright colors and loud noises.
