Fire safety is an important topic that everyone should know about. In order to educate children about fire safety, we have created a preschool fire safety booklet that includes a variety of printables. These printables will help children learn about fire safety in a fun and engaging way.
Fire Safety Tips
It is important to teach children about fire safety tips. This will help them be prepared in case of a fire. Some important fire safety tips that children should know include:
- Never play with matches or lighters
- Stay away from fireplaces and space heaters
- Never touch the stove or oven without an adult’s permission
- Do not put anything that can burn near a space heater or stove
- Make sure smoke detectors are working and have fresh batteries
Firefighter Activity
Children often look up to firefighters as heroes. This firefighter activity will help children learn more about firefighters and what they do. To complete this activity, children can:
- Draw a picture of a firefighter
- Write a thank you note to a firefighter
- Act out what a firefighter does, such as putting out fires or rescuing animals
Stop, Drop, and Roll
Stop, drop, and roll is an important technique that children should know in case their clothes ever catch on fire. To teach children how to stop, drop, and roll, parents and teachers can:
- Explain to children what stop, drop, and roll means and why it is important
- Have children practice stop, drop, and roll with a teacher or parent to ensure they do it correctly
- Remind children to never run if their clothes catch on fire
Fire Safety Song
Music can be a fun and engaging way to teach children about fire safety. Parents and teachers can create a fire safety song with children by:
- Choosing a simple tune, such as “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”
- Replacing the lyrics with fire safety tips, such as “Never play with matches, not even once”
- Singing the song with the children and encouraging them to sing along
Fire Safety Craft
Crafts can be a fun way for children to learn about fire safety. Parents and teachers can make a fire safety craft with children by:
- Gathering materials such as red, orange, and yellow tissue paper, a paper bag, and glue
- Having children tear the tissue paper into small pieces
- Gluing the tissue paper onto the paper bag to create a fire shape
- Talking to children about fire safety while they work on the craft
Overall, it is important to teach children about fire safety in a fun and engaging way. These printables, activities, and crafts will help children learn about fire safety while having fun at the same time.
