Preschoolers from across the area have been coming to the Taylorville Fire Department this week to learn more about fire safety. This week is National Fire Prevention Week, and Taylorville Fire Captain Matthew Adermann says they want these young people to know their fire safety tips early.

Adermann says the department has a morning full of activities for the kids coming to visit.

Adermann says the best way to get information to parents is through the kids, and having it this week is always a great week to provide fire safety reminders.

Fire Prevention Week has been put on nationally by the National Fire Protection Association for more than 90 years.
