October family learning

Little lessons.
Lifesaving habits.

Bring fire prevention learning home with a few simple steps you can practice together.

Know the sound

Test smoke alarms every month. Place them on every level of your home and inside and outside sleeping areas. Help children recognize the alarm.

Make a plan

Find two ways out of each room and keep exits clear. Decide which adult will help babies, young children, or anyone who needs assistance. Practice together.

Meet outside

Choose one safe outdoor meeting place. In a fire, get out, stay out, and call 911 from outside. Never go back inside for belongings.

A small moment together

Family Fire Safety Challenge

Draw your family’s outdoor meeting place with your child. Practice your escape plan at home, then bring the drawing to share with your teacher at pickup or drop off. Add a thank you picture for our firefighters if you like!
