Kids Emergency Preparedness

Kid Emergency Preparedness

In addition to family and community planning, it is important to talk to your kids about emergency preparedness. Discussing and practicing your household's emergency plans with your child can teach them what to expect and reduce their level of fear in an emergency situation. Getting your child ready for an emergency doesn't have to be hard. Learn how you can make emergency preparedness a fun and valuable activity:

• Do a hazard hunt in your home

• Learn ways kids can help prepare before an emergency

• Go to Ready Kids for fun and games that help your child plan and practice before an emergency
