School Safety
Talk to an adult about how to stay safe at school. Make a list of the three most important rules for staying safe on the playground or on a bus. Make a safety poster to share what you have learned!
Step Two
Map it out
Get a map of your neighborhood or town. Mark where the police station, fire station, and other important points are located.

Check Smoke Alarms
Watch this video by the National Fire Protection Association to learn more about smoke alarms.
Ask a parent/guardian to test the ones at your home.
Download this calendar to track when you have checked your smoke alarms each month!

Check out the “Going Out Checklist” from KidSmartz.org to help you stay safe when going out.
Talk with a parent/guardian about using the checklist when you are out and about!
