Fire Safety Week Kickoff!

October is fire safety month and what better way to kick it off than to bring the firemen, firetruck, and all of their cool tools to Holly Tree! The children were able to climb in, explore the firetrucks, and hold some of the cool tools!  The firemen talked to the children about how to "Stop, Drop, and Roll" and talked about how each of the tools were used in emergency situations. They talked to them about how smoke rises and told them if they ever saw smoke or fire to get low to the floor and crawl. 



This Preschool Two friend had a blast getting to wear the fireman's hat! The firemen explained to them about how the hat keeps their heads safe.


This Preschool Two friend was able to pretend to put out a fire with one of the water sprayer nozzles!


The fireman was talking to Preschool Three about each of the tools, and how they could use them to put out a fire.


After the children played with the spray nozzles, the fireman showed them where the water hoses went and how it connected to the nozzle. He also told us that the fire hoses give off enough water to fill a normal size pool in less than 60 seconds!


One of the Preschool One friend's explore the inside of the firetruck.


The Toddler classroom poses for this photo opportunity after they were finished exploring the truck and the cool fire truck lights!


This Pre-K friend was asking the fireman how to use the radio to talk to the station!
