FIRE SAFETY ROCKS!

The Fire Safety Rocks live-streamed fire safety program helps children learn basic fire safety knowledge and skills with the goals of saving lives, limiting injuries, and reducing fire losses. 

Firefighter Dayna and Molly the Fire Safety Dog share fun, yet educationally sound, ways to stay safe, live on the web.

Teachers, students and parents tune in to this live streamed program where fire safety tips are disseminated in a fun format for children.

The program includes special appearances by safety friends of the two and four-legged type and provides free, downloadable supplementary safety materials for teachers and 
parents.


When the fire safety dogs are traveling across the country, the show is streamed live on location. Former locations include the Memphis Fire Department’s main station, Aurora Regional Fire Museum in Aurora, Illinois (just outside of Chicago), the Unified Fire District Authority in Salt Lake City, Utah, Hall County Fire Services (Gainesville, Georgia) and the Vigilant Hose Company in Emmitsburg, Maryland.


Children and adults can chat with them live and ask questions about fire safety and the Fire Safety Dogs. Perfect for the boys and girls in your life!  Children and their caregivers can join the chat and have fun learning at the same time.
