Pillowcase Project:

The Pillowcase Project is a national youth preparedness program offered by Red Cross regions across the country. The 40- or 60-minute presentation provides emergency preparedness education to youth in grades 3-5 (ages 8-11) in school classrooms and other settings. Numerous tools have been developed for this program including a standardized curriculum, workbook, quizzes and activities which have been carefully constructed with the help of curriculum and hazard experts. Many tools for presenters have been developed to foster consistency and fidelity to the program goals and objectives. The highly interactive presentation addresses home fire safety, a local natural hazard, psycho-social coping skills and household preparedness steps like making a plan and a kit.

Prepare with Pedro the Penguin:

The Federal Emergency Management Agency and the American Red Cross have teamed up to introduce the Prepare with Pedro Disaster Preparedness Activity Book. The activity book provides parents and educators a creative way to teach children how to prepare for disasters and emergencies. Prepare with Pedro is a fun way for parents, teachers, and community leaders to talk about safety with young children.
