Put smoke alarms in your home and check them often to help keep your family safe from fire. Make a plan with two ways out of every room, choose a meeting place outside, and practice it so everyone knows what to do. If a fire happens, crawl under the smoke, get out fast, stay outside, and call 911 for help.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a gas you cannot see or smell, but it can make people very sick and can even cause death. It comes from things that burn fuel, like cars, heaters, generators, and grills. Kids are at higher risk because they breathe faster and take in more of the gas. To keep your family safe, put carbon monoxide alarms on every level of your home, check them often, and never use things like generators, grills, or cars in the garage or inside the house.

Space heaters can help keep your home warm, but they must be used safely around children. Keep heaters at least 3 feet away from anything that can burn, plug them straight into the wall, never use an extension cord, and turn them off when you leave the room or go to sleep. Choose a heater made for indoor use that turns off by itself if it gets too hot or tips over.
