So, a friend of ours and all of our kids went to a local fire station. It helped that her brother was an ambulance EMT there, but it was so much fun and soooo educational! They took all of us on a tour of the Fire Truck, let us try on the equipment (it was really heavy!), and got to see the ambulance that we always see and hear all over Utah.
The firefighters and EMT's talked about all kinds of things. They put on their masks to show the kids what they looked like with it on so they won't be so scared if they saw someone like that come through the fire. They talked about how important math is with water pressure. There's all kind of really cool equipment. If you can take your kids on a tour of a fire station, I definitely recommend it!

Fire stations are always fun. You're doing a great job teaching those girls that life is constantly learning and schooling. Keep it up.
