Have an escape plan for your family and practice it at least twice a year. It is best to have two ways out of every room in your house. Agree on a specific place where everyone will meet outside.

Certain types of children's clothing can be hazardous as your child plays both indoors and outdoors. Long, dangling jacket or sweatshirt drawstrings and long scarves can be caught on the slides. Also, the very popular key chains the children have hanging on their backpacks can be caught on the railing as they walk into school. Please take the time to check your children's clothing to make sure it is safe. Remove drawstrings from clothing whenever possible or cut off drawstring tabs and knots.
