Stop Drop and Roll
With: Tommy Flames
1.PRACTICE STOP-DROP-AND-ROLL
The Stop-Drop-and-Roll drill is loved by all kids. Have a little fun with your family and demonstrate what not to do if their clothing were to catch on fire. Let everybody at home practice this drill.
2. PRACTICE STAYING LOW WHEN THERE IS SMOKE
Talk about why it is important to stay low if a room or hallway is full of smoke.
Use a giant piece of cloth or blanket.
Ask your kids to each grab a corner of the fabric and wave it around.
The other kids can take turn staying low and crawling under the ‘smoke’.
