Next you will need to put the kindling spread out on top of the paper. This will make it quicker and easier to light the fire.

How to Put the Wood

For this step you are going to grab your wood and put it in a pyramid so that the flame can get enough oxygen to light. If it doesn't get any air the fire will smoulder and go out. Make sure it doesn't fall.
