Sounds at the Station!

Join the Firefighters of the Plain Township Fire Department for Sounds at the Station! Sounds at the Station is an fun activity to introduce preschoolers to the sound of the smoke alarm and sounds of the Firefighter's equipment. Children must understand when a smoke alarm sounds or "beeps", they should go outside immediately with the rest of the family. There is not time to stop for toys, pets, or other things. Young children are often frightened by strange, loud noises. They may freeze, hide, or respond in other inappropriate ways that could endanger their safety. Becoming familiar with the sound of a smoke alarm and knowing how to react to the sound is important for children. Registration is required, Teaching Points A smoke alarm will let you know if there is a fire in your home. You need smoke alarms in your home. Most alarms make a loud beep, beep, beep! if there is smoke. If the smoke alarm sounds, everyone should get outside and stay outside until an adult says it is safe to go back inside.
