Fire Safety Burn Safety Fire Prevention Week 2007 Holiday/Cooking Safety For Kids For Teachers| FIRE PREVENTION WEEK 2007 is Oct., 7 -13 - Practice Your Escape Plan ! | |
 |
The theme of this year's Fire Prevention Week is "Practice Your Escape Plan!." Families should not only create an escape plan, but everyone must PRACTICE the plan together. According to a poll by the National Fire Protection Association, the majority of Americans have a fire escape plan, but most haven't practiced it. From October 7-13, fire safety advocates will be spreading the word that when it comes to escape plans, practice is key. |

Did you know? Fires and burns are the fifth leading cause of accidental injury-related death among children ages 14 and under. |
| BURN SAFETY | |

Did you know? Burns have long been recognized as among the most painful and devastating injuries a person can sustain and survive. |
| HOLIDAY AND COOKING SAFETY | |

As holiday goodies are being prepared, children are eager to lend a hand. Whether decorating cookies or mixing salad dressing, children need close adult supervision at all times in and around the kitchen. |
