A fire crew has been suspended from community work after a firefighter wrapped two children in cling film.
The incident, which involved the children of a crew member, was caught on camera at a fire station in Southend.
Essex Fire Service is investigating after the BBC notified it of photographs sent by a concerned party.
The chief fire officer said the images had "raised concerns" and a "thorough investigation" was under way.
The service said the crew had been put on "core duties only", meaning it cannot carry out community work.
The children's mother said what happened "was intended as a joke" and the youngsters enjoyed it.
