At first I wondered if this site was for real. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (roughly the equivalent of Public Safety Canada) actually has a website for kids. This very kid friendly site struck me as a bizarre idea at first; it almost seems to make disaster preparations silly and childish. But I suppose being prepared for the worst, whether you’re young or old, is a good thing. If that’s true it makes sense that colors, graphics and language level should all be pitched at a level appropriate to kids.
If you are in an area where tornados, hurricanes, floods, or even snow storms are a reality, then this site could be a really neat way to prepare you students for it.
