What is Fire Prevention Week?

Fire Prevention Week is always during the week including October 9th, to commemorate the Great Chicago Fire. Which began on October 8th, 1871, and caused devastating damage.

The worksheets feature questions like "What is your fire escape plan?" and "Why is it dangerous to play with fire?" alongside sections for kids to write and draw. The title "FIRE SAFETY" is prominently displayed on one worksheet, with tips like "Stop, Drop, and Roll" and "Dial 911 in an emergency." Bright colors like orange and red are used throughout, with fun, cartoon-style illustrations to engage young learners.

My fire escape plan worksheet

If you do not have a fire escape plan in place, now is the perfect time to have one. Whether you are at home, or at school, do the children know what to do if there were a fire?

Please don’t assume that the older kids know what to do, especially when they are not at school surrounded by teachers instructing them.

We go over our plan every year, even now my son is in middle school. Just so he knows exactly what to do. He is in the house on his own occasionally now he is a teenager.

It is amazing how many of his friends have no idea what to do in an emergency.
