🔥❄️ New Winter Fire Safety Resource! ❄️🔥

Teach real-world emergency vs. not emergency skills while practicing the AAC core word ON/OFF (fireplace on or off).

Each cozy winter scene features two dogs by the fire… and students must decide if it’s safe or an emergency. When they’re too close, a flame on the shoe gives a clear warning cue!

Perfect for:
✔ Life skills & safety lessons
✔ AAC modeling & expressive language
✔ Special education & speech therapy

Students respond with single words, short phrases, or full explanations, and then check their answer by tapping Emergency or Not.
