While fire can happen anywhere at any time, it most often strikes when people are distracted by the hustle and bustle of the holidays.  A family’s holiday celebrations can turn tragic in an instant.  It certainly ‘Tis the Season to be careful.  We want to highlight seasonal risks including staying in the kitchen while cooking, installing and replacing smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, developing and practising a home fire escape plan.

With our latest holiday parody we used clips from National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. A classic movie that is 30 years old yet the same fire safety messages are needed. Prevent fires before they start, install and maintain smoke/CO alarms and develop and practise an escape plan.

Enjoy our take on this favourite holiday song. Be safe and please share this post with your friends and families.
