Fire Station

Madison had her first field trip with Bright Beginnings last Tuesday.  It was a walking field trip to the fire station.  I went along and took Ellie.  Madison listened attentively to the firefighters… and so did Ellie.

Ellie was pretty much done being friendly the minute Sparky, the mascot, came out.  But she still stood at attention – probably scared of being touched by that giant dog!

Madison practiced how to stop! drop! and roll!

And she crawled under “smoke” (get low and go!) to safety.

The last thing they learned was the firefighters are look scary in all their gear, but they are still just the same friendly guys.  The kids gave them high fives to feel comfortable with them in their gear.

The class was able to walk through the ambulance and the fire truck.    Even Ellie made it into the fire truck.

They ended with a class picture.  Super cute.

Great job, Firefighter Steve and Firefighter Frank on teaching the kids all about fire safety!
