Schoolchildren catch up on how to avoid burns, react to fires
Many kids now aged 5 to 8 never got the usual fire safety education at school during the pandemic. Trying to address this learning gap is Kara Judd, a fire life safety educator with the Clark Burn Center at Upstate, who discusses how to avoid burns and general fire safety. She is also a juvenile fire-setter intervention specialist and a lieutenant in the Cazenovia Fire Department. For tips and learning tools, she recommends the children's page of the National Fire Protection Association.
