Yesterday a Firefighter opened the door for us at Sammy's school. From the time he got out of the car Sammy was facinated by him, and sure enough, as soon as he got in the car to go home he was Mr. Motor Mouth about the Firefighter's visit to his classroom. He told me, "There was a fireman at our school today. I colored a fire truck." Then, "He said 'Don't touch fire. Don't touch the stove. Don't touch hot water.'" (There was constant chatter the entire ride home - all of 5 minutes, yes - but this is the most he's ever shared w/o prompting.)
When we arrived home he was very eager to go through his backpack and show me his fire book. It consists of about fire pages related to fire trucks and fire safety. He did indeed color a firetruck, and the last page had little boxes with pictures of all the things that are hot and not safe to touch, most of which he told me in the car.
Oh, and he also got a Junior Firefighter sticker in the shape of a badge for his shirt. Last night he took it off yesterday's shirt and put it very carefully on his red chair for the night. Then this morning he put it on today's shirt.
I'd say fire safety day was a HUGE hit! :)
