0 A firecracker is one type of firework. Some fireworks set off fountains of coloured sparks for a visual display at ground level, others explode to make showers of coloured sparks in the sky, some make noises. Firecrackers are small but loud fireworks that explode at ground level without any visual sparks. They are usually joined together in long strings. 0-

10A firecracker is a small firework. Firecrackers are let off during the Chinese New Year. They explode and make loud sounds. Some are very small and are usually let off by children. The bigger ones are usually let off by adults. After they have exploded, smoke will be given off. The smoke can be quite unbearable.02br

00The big ones can cause attap huts to catch fire. That's why firecrackers were banned by the Singapore Government many, many years ago.02br

00As for fireworks, they are bigger and they are set off to generate coloured lights, smoke and noise. They cause parts of the sky to light up when they are set off. People can see the colourful lights generated even though they live many kilometres from the place where the fireworks are launched.0-
