and groups in our service area. This program provides an entertaining
and fun agenda for children in preschool through second grade. The length
of the program is flexible, ranging from 20 to 30 minutes depending on
your allocation of time. Coloring books and stickers will be given out
to all children.
A ten-minute animated
video will be shown, and "Louie the Lightning Bug" will make a live appearance
for all grades. Electrical safety will be addressed and will include:
flying kites, safety inside and outside the home, storms, etc.
Live
Line Safety Demonstration
(Third grade and up):
Northeastern’s Live Line table top display demonstrates electrical safety
in and around the home. Topics such as how electricity is made, where
it comes from, and how it works are addressed in the presentation. This
is an interactive presentation and normally ranges from 45 minutes to
one hour. Questions from the students are welcome.
