Tuesday Morning 04/17/2012 at 10:15 thousands of Utah's will Drop, Cover, and hold on. Because many of your own children will be participating with this at their schools, daycares, and preschools it would be a good idea to talk about it as a family. Utah has been over due to have an earthquake for years. Experts say it's not a matter of "if" but "when" an earthquake will happen. Utah Shakeout.org gives great information about the Shakeout drill plus simple things families and work places can do to keep safe in an emergency. On the site their is a audio recording of the drill that you can play so you can practice. One thing they recommend doing is making a Grab and Go kit that has survival items and food. To get a list of recommended items visit Be Ready Utah. If we are prepared we won't be as scared and this can also save a child if they know what to do. I think it's a wonderful idea so spread the word and Be Ready for an earthquake!
WELCOME! I hope you enjoy sharing in the joy, frustrations and huge learning curve that I am experiencing as a mother. Through the 9 years of being a mom, I have appreciated those who not only listened, but also have helped by offering encouraging words and ideas. Because of past help I have recieved, I decided to pass on ideas at least once a week and hopefully get some more from YOU! If you know of other parents who would appreciate this-please share it with them. Let's enjoy the journey.
