FIRE SAFETY CHECKLIST Everyone in your family has a role to play in your home's fire safety. Most importantly, kids should be familiar with how smoke detectors sound and what your home fire escape plan is. The checklist below can help prepare you and your family. KIDS' CHECKLIST Does your home have smoke alarms on every level, inside each bedroom and outside each sleeping area? Do you know the sound that a smoke alarm makes? Do you know what to do if you smoke alarm sounds? Are all the exits in your home clear of furniture, toys, and clutter? Can you see the number on your house from the street? Have a grown-up go with you to check. Has your family picked a safe place to meet outside if a fire occurs? PARENTS' CHECKLIST Are the batteries working in all your smoke alarms? Does your home have interconnected smoke alarms (when one sounds, they all sound)? Do you test the batteries in the smoke alarms at least once a month? Does your family have a home fire escape plan that includes two ways out of each room? Does your entire family practice your plan twice a year? FIRE IS FAST! In less than 30 seconds a small flame can turn into a major fire. It only takes minutes for thick black smoke to fill a house or for it to be engulfed in flames.* *Source: https://www.ready.gov/home-fires DO THE DRILL!
