National Fire Prevention Week – Giveaway *CLOSED*

**Congrats to Thao!!**

If you have school age children you already know that October 4-10 is National Fire Prevention Week.

Now is a good time to discuss what your child may have learned this week about fire, whether they are school age or not.  Do you have a fire safety plan?  Are your smoke alarms in good working order?

The following tips are from the National Fire Sprinkler Association.

Kid-Friendly Fire Safety

1. Never play with matches, candles, or lighters. Tell an adult immediately if you see these items lying out in a room.

2. Never cook alone.

3. Never stick anything into an electrical socket.

4. Never hang clothing or other items on a lamp, heater, or radiator.

5. Always tell an adult if you see smoke or fire in your house.

6. If you see fire, get out of the house quickly. Once you are outside, call 9-1-1 immediately.

7. Practice a fire escape plan with your parents several times per year.

8. When escaping fire, stay low to the ground.

9. There should be a smoke alarm on each level of your house. Can you find the smoke alarms in your home?

10. Remind your parents to check smoke alarms each month to make sure it is free of dust and that the battery is working.
