Fire Safety Day

Last week was Fire Safety Week and Exploration Place was having a special event with lots of firefighters and firetrucks. I planned to take Firefighter Garret and Hudson and it was on Thursday so Jamie and Binga were able to go with us. Unfortunately it rained so they had to cancel all the outside firetruck demonstrations they were going to do but they still had some stuff set up inside that we were able to do, plus we got to see Exploration Place.

Firefighter Garret showed up at our house Thursday morning with all his firegear on ready to go "teach" those firefighters about fire safety. According to him the firefighters didn't know anything so he was going to teach them!

We did get to see a puppet show. Hudson sat through the whole thing and paid close attention. He kept saying puppet and "bye-bye" when the puppets would go behind the curtain and clapping his hands ! After the show they asked the kids questions about "What number do you call if there's a fire?" and "What do you do if your clothes catch on fire?" Garret answered every question they asked - correctly!

Here is some video of the puppet show and the tornado tube.
