A Parents Guide to Fire Safety for Toddlers and Babies

Almost half of child fire deaths are among children age 4 or younger.  

The program “What's Hot? What's Not?” urges parents and caregivers to prepare by installing and maintaining working smoke alarms; safely storing lighters and matches out of children's reach and sight; teaching children what is hot and that it can burn them; and practicing a fire escape plan with small children, which should include helping toddlers understand how to quickly respond in case of fire, and planning how adults can escape with babies.
