"Hi! I'm Charles Connelly. I am a state certified fire-fighter and on behalf of Expert Village, this is basic fire safety. When practicing your annual fire drill, you should remember the importance of preparation. Certain things you should remember is having a flashlight nearby your bed because when smoke happens, it could be really dark. As any electronic device, you should always check that the batteries work annually or maybe semi-annually. Another thing that you should keep in mind is the seriousness of a fire. Maybe you should have the time to talk to your children about how feeling fire is a very serious matter and should only be done in serious cases as a true emergency. Other things to keep in mind is to alert the household members would be whistles or other such powerful devices so that everybody can wake up if they were sleeping during this time of need. Remember that fires are a very serious matter and your children should be able to take care of themselves as well as to alert everybody in the household. Children should not be relying on just the parents but should be able to visit the building on their own and alert everybody in the household just as well as any other adult. "
