September is National Preparedness Month and Pedro the penguin loves learning how he can prepare for an emergency to stay safe. Prepare with Pedro is a youth-centered program that teaches kids in a fun and educational way, how to BE PREPARED and TAKE ACTION for either home fires or a local hazard. Specially-trained American Red Cross employees and volunteers introduce Pedro and facilitate activities designed to help kids learn basic preparedness concepts, including how to remain calm in stressful situations. These sessions will focus on fire safety. All ages are welcome, but content is geared towards kids ages 5 to 8.
