Clothing
To help protect your family in case of a household fire, require children-particularly small children-to sleep in fireproof clothing. These pajamas are available at most retail outlets. In the event of a fire in the house, these clothes can help prevent burns on your child's skin as well as protect them from injuries caused when melting clothing sticks to the skin.
