"Exit Drills in the Home - E.D.I.T.H."
Do you remember having fire drills in school? Your family should also have fire drills at home. Everyone should work together to plan two ways out of every room, and pick a family meeting place outside. It's important to have a family meeting place so you can all be together and know that each other is safe.
"Get Low and Go"
That means get out of a burning building right away and stay low to the ground (crawl) as you are leaving! Smoke will rise towards the ceiling, you need to crawl to stay low out of the smoke.
"Stop, Drop and Roll"
That's what you do if your clothes catch on fire! Stop right where you are (never run), drop to the ground, cover your face with your hands and roll over and over to put the fire out.
