You can help protect your family by reminding a grownup to test your smoke detectors every month. Once a year, replace the batteries in all your smoke detectors. Ask a grownup if it's time to replace them. Having Fire Drills at home are very important because most fires occur at home. Never hide or take time to gather up your belongings.
Fires are scary and confusing.
They can be loud, burn very fast, and their smoke can make a room or home very dark. Good escape plans help you get out of your home quickly in case of a fire. The best plans have two ways to get out of each room. If one way is blocked by the fire, you can get out the other way. When escaping, stay low to the floor.
