While your kid enjoys coloring the picture, tell them how the equipment helps a fireman control the fire and at the same time, protect himself from any mishaps.
Did you tell your child why a fireman carries a fire ax? Here, is the answer. A fire ax is a type of ax specifically designed for firefighters. The features of the fire ax make it suitable for emergencies. It has to be ordered directly from the manufacturers. A typical fire ax is mounted on a long shaft, which is treated to become fire-resistant. The haft is attached to the head firmly. The ax helps firemen cut long cables and use it as support. The head of the ax is colored brightly, which helps the fireman locate it during conditions of low visibility. Sometimes, the pick and the head are painted with different colors so firefighters can be sure whether they are working with the right end.
Just like this, tell your child the significance of each fire equipment. You can also visit the nearest firefighting center with your kid. So, the coloring page coupled with the educational tour will help your child learn more about firefighting.
12. There is a fire
In the image, a firefighter is standing in front of the firefighting truck and is pointing at the spot that is on fire. On his shoulders, he is carrying some rope, which he likely needs to climb the building damaged by fire.
The firefighters have to plan a strategy before they enter the building on fire. They communicate on walkie-talkies and divide the rescue work among themselves. Firefighting requires a strong team with the knowledge to extinguish the fire caused due to different reasons. This is because extinguishing an industrial fire requires a different approach than a domestic fire.
Your child will enjoy coloring this picture. Guide them to the right colors to make the picture look realistic. You can also watch some movies like 15 Minutes and The 119 with your kids so that they understand the risks involved in firefighting. Curious George and the Firefighters is a film your child will enjoy, so watch it with them when they are done coloring.
