Kids don't need to be scared to be prepared. The calm parent creates the calm child.

Three ways to teach emergency skills without fear:

1. Make fire safety a game (stop, drop, roll races)
2. Practice calling 911 on an old phone
3. Let them pack their own mini go-bag

Kids who feel capable feel less afraid.

The biggest mistake: waiting until something happens to explain it.

By then they're scared and you're stressed. Practice when things are calm. That's when learning sticks.
