Over the last few years I presented Fire Prevention programs in the schools. I am now retired, but remember one of my best sources being-- "Learn Not to Burn.. Fire Safety Songs" by..JIM POST. These songs are up tempo and really catch the students attention. My program progressed into a 24' backdrop and 9 puppets. Naturally this required more folks, but with the stop, drop, and roll song, burn song, and smoke detector song it is possible to get the message across as an individual. Clown make-up definately contributes to the program because like you pointed out the presentor isn't in the garb of the day. (might I point out my livelyhood was in that garb I proudly wore as a full time firefighter) make-up breaks the ice. Finally a post brought me out of my shell and made me respond to a request. I have been gathering info from lots of you folks without sharing. now I feel bad. looking forward to sharing what little I know. Sparky "T"
