Fire Safety Week

October 8th was fire safety week!  The children enjoyed the puppet presentation given by the UI Burn Unit nurses!  The presentation covered stop, drop and roll, what to do if you get burned while cooking and having a safety plan for home WITH a meeting place.  We continued learning about fire safety in our classroom throughout the week.  The children practiced "stay low and go," feeling the door to see if it's hot and crawling to a window to wait for help!  I can tell you that each year when we have this presentation the nurses always ask children to raise their hand IF they have a safety plan for home  AND if they have a safe meeting place outside.  The concerned looks from the children without a plan/safe meeting place always reminds me just how important it is to make sure and remind parents to have this conversation with your children!  IF you haven't, please take a few minutes to discuss this important information with your child this week!  It's something you will never regret doing!
