1. Fire Fighters Are My Friends

2. This is where fire fighters work

3. This is what fire fighters drive

4. Sometimes we have to wear funny looking clothes to keep us safe from the smoke and fire. Don’t be afraid if you see me dressed like this!

5. Turnout Coat Air Tank Protective Gloves Air Mask Helmet Air Hose Waterproof Boots

6. When we get a call, we rush to the scene of the fire in our emergency vehicles

7. We run to the nearest fire hydrant with our hoses

8. And we hook our hose to the hydrant to get water to fight the fire

9. Then we spray water on the fire to put it out

10. Sometimes we have to climb up ladders to get inside the house to look for people or to put out the fire

11. If we do go inside - we crawl very low under the smoke

12. If we find someone in the fire, we carry them out as fast as we can

13. Sometimes fire fighters come to our school to teach us how we can prevent fires and be safer in our homes and schools Matches and lighters are tools - not toys!

14. So if a fire fighter ever has to come to your house, don’t hide or be afraid. Remember - Fire fighters are our friends!
