Family Home Evening! Firefighter Style!

Fire, Fire, Fire!!!

October 5, 2015


The Provo Fire Department came to the Rec. Center parking lot and taught us about fire safety! It was full of fun filled activities for the kidlets!

1. They got to shoot the fire hose! Orange cones were the targets!

2. They got their picture taken in a firefighter cardboard cut out!

3. They got to watch a man rappel (he was from search and rescue) from the top of the fire ladder all the way to the ground!

4. They got to go into the Fire Safety Trailer.  Its a camp trailer they have converted into a little house. There is a front room, a kitchen and a bedroom. They talked about fire safety in all three rooms. The bedroom is upstairs where they turn on the fog machine. The smoke alarm goes off and all the kids have to evacuate through the sliding door, onto the porch and down the ladder! I did it, too! Eric smiled and shook his head at me.

5. They got a goodie bag! It came with a plastic fire-man's hat, a toy fire extinguisher and of course, a sticker!!!

The boys had so much fun! Kelson was really nervous about firing the water hose, so Jay did it first. We went and did all the other activities before Kelson got brave enough to get back in line! 

Today was pajama day for Kelson... We all wore our pajama's to match him! Everyone but me remembered to change before coming here!


Kelson spraying the hose! Unfortunately, we didn't get one of Jay doing it :(


The Chief and... another big shot (I can't remember his position)

Just pretend this one is rotated the correct way...
