The field trip to the fire station during community helpers week was a HUGE success! We got to talk with a real fireman and all the children got to walk through the fire trucks and ambulances. My favorite part was watching how fast a fireman can slide down his fire pole and get to where he needs to be - we timed him and we all agreed a pole is MUCH faster than the stairs!!!
We got to see firsthand all of the gear a fireman puts on before he goes into a burning house. We found out they have to wear a LOT of clothes. The funniest thing is that they wear a darth vader mask that makes their voice change, but we know it's only a mask. We learned that if we're in trouble and we see someone dressed like that, he's there to help us.
