ESFI utilized funds provided by a 2010 Fire Prevention and Safety (FP&S) Grant from the Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency to develop this third installment of our dynamic Investigate with P.I. Plug children's safety awareness program.
These holiday safety-specific program materials, starring ESFI's quirky Private I. Plug mascot, deliver critical holiday fire and electrical safety messages to elementary school children in grades 3-5, focusing on decorating, cooking, space heaters, and smoke alarms.
These resources have been developed in accordance with the National Science Education standards.
Be sure to visit our Kids' Corner for cartoon safety videos and interactive video games!
Additional installments of the Investigate with P.I. Plug series are available in our Safety Educator's Guide.
