Hey Jakey...who is this little guy Mama is making us pose with today?
This is Smokey Bear, Rosy. He teaches mini peeps all about wildfire prevention. Mama thought we might want to help celebrate his 75th birthday. He has been teaching humans all about fire safety and how to prevent wildfires since 1944!
Smokey taught Mama these Five Main Rules of Wildfire Prevention when she was just a little peep:
1. Only you can prevent Wildfires!
2. Always be careful with fire
3. Never play with matches or lighters
4. Always watch your campfire
5. Make sure your campfire is out before leaving it
Here is a little infographic showing a few more tips:
We know, here in California, this time of year can be very dry and wildfires can ignite and spread very quickly. We are thankful that Smokey taught Mama and Daddy to be very careful with open flame!
Wow Jakey, Smokey is a pretty important Bear...I hope he has the bestest birthday ever and remember, like Smokey Bear says...
"Only YOU can prevent Wildfires!"
