Last week our neighbor set up a tour of the local fire station for us! A new one recently opened just a few minutes down the street from our neighborhood so our "cul-de-sac" crew loaded up for a fun visit.
The firefighters were SO nice and welcoming to us and the kids. A few of them even came out to our cards to help us herd all of the little ones inside!
First all of the kids got to look in the fire trucks. They got to climb inside and look around as well as sit and "drive" it. Of course Hailey had to bring Marshall the fire dog from Paw Patrol. ;) Her first question to the fire fighters was if they had a "dalmatian" too. Ha!
Then one of the fire fighters dressed up in the fire gear to show the kids what it looked like, as well as tell them if they were ever in a fire not to be afraid of someone dressed like that. I was kind of surprised but Hailey wasn't at all nervous as she watched him add more and more gear and even the mask didn't bother her. She even gave him a high five!
Then we went inside too look around the station. They showed us their kitchen, where they relax and watch TV, their bunk room and their weight room. We even visited the fire chief in his office and Hailey took a turn in his chair.

After checking everything out, they gave the kids fire hats, coloring books and stickers. The kids loved it! We had such a great time visiting our firefighters!
