Fire Safety | Fun lessons and Activities | Homeschool | Lifewithme3

Fire Safety is one of the things we must teach our children. I give a lesson on this very often to my young son, and will continue giving him reminders. I always try to make the lesson very interactive and engaging so it sticks with him. This school year, I found a website that has some really good lessons and activities to help teach the topic. It is fun and engaging and works great for us. There are journaling, coloring pages, and alot more activities and information on fire. great for any grade level. Just click on the fireman or the link to get to the activities. https://www.juniorfiremarshal.com/for-educators ~~~~~~~~~~ All photos posted here are property of Life with Me3.
