Today I got to go along as a parent chaperon on a field trip to the local fire station. The trip included demonstrations of pole sliding, explanations about what all the gear is and opportunities to practice fire safely and play with the equipment. I found this as exciting and informative as the kids did!
Ella and Chloe, her best friend from kindergarten.
Taking her turn practicing crawling under "the smoke" and out the door to safety when the smoke detector went off.
Ella testing out a seat in the back of the giant ladder fire truck.
Getting to try the big hose with Firefighter Jason.
The whole kindergarten class, much more wise about fire safety and the workings of a fire station after today's trip!
