National Fire Prevention Week 2010

National Fire Prevention Week is October 3-9, 2010 and I think cupcakes are the best way to spread the word!  Decorate cupcakes with a fire theme and give a fire safety tip when you deliver them!

• Test and clean smoke alarms once a month and replace batteries at least once a year. Smoke alarms greatly increase your chances of surviving a fire at home.
• Have an escape plan. Review escape routes with your family.
• Make sure wiring does not run under rugs, over nails, or across high traffic areas.
• Do not overload extension cords or outlets.
• Keep an eye on what you are cooking - never leave food unattended on the stove.
• Teach children fire safety - keep matches & lighters away from children.
