Thursday, Fireman Steve from The Dearborn FD came to visit us. We learned a lot about Fire Safety. We learned that there should be a smoke detector in every bedroom and on each floor of the house. Al;so that we should never play with matches, lighters, or candles, and if we see matches or lighters where kids can get them to go tell an adult. We also learned about what to do in case of a fire. Everyone should sleep with their door closed to slow down fire and smoke, and that kids should be able to open their own bedroom window by themselves in case that is the only way to get help. Also every family needs to have a planned escape route with two possible exits and a meeting place a safe distance from the house like a tree, driveway, or neighbor’s house. Families should practice their escape routes so in case of fire you can remain calm.
We also learned what to do if our clothes get caught on fire. Stop, Drop and Roll!
Thanks Fireman Steve!
