Summarize this article in one sentence.
Fire spreads quickly, and there may be no time during a fire to figure out an escape route. If bedrooms are on the second floor, be sure an escape ladder is near the window in each room. Designate 2 escape routes out of each room. When you prepare children, they are generally less frightened and can better remember what you taught them. Walk your children through each escape route. Have them practice opening doors and pulling up windows to be certain they can easily handle these tasks. If you have older children with bedrooms on the second floor, have them practice exiting safely through the window using the escape ladder. This will help to slow the fire, giving family members a little extra time to get out safely. This can be a neighbor's front yard, your mailbox or another safe location.

Summary:
Plan your escape route ahead of time. Practice your escape plan and safety rules with children often. Test your escape plan to be sure it works well. Make sure the last person leaving each room closes the door after exiting. Choose a safe place outside the home where family members can meet.
