National Fire Prevention Week is observed in both the United States and Canada during the week (from Sunday to Saturday) in which October 9 falls. According to National Geographic Kids, National Fire Prevention Week marks the anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. On October 8 of that year, a small fire in a barn spread so fast through the city that more than 250 people were killed, 100,000 lost their homes, and more than 17,000 buildings went up in smoke. The disaster changed the way people thought about fires. Afterwards, people realized just how fast and dangerous fire could be and began to focus on stopping fires before they start.
There are fun educated ways you can teach your child about fire safety and prevention. You can prepare your child by using printable, fun craft and activities. Some crafts include making a fire truck from an egg carton, making a fire dog puppet from a Styrofoam cup and a fire-fighter hat from red construction paper.
