Most calls are not fires. A modern fire STATION spends about two thirds of its runs on medical calls and car accidents, and the ENGINE rolls for all of them. This grid is the classic version anyway, the one a kindergarten tour is built around: the HYDRANT, the HOSE, the LADDER, the HELMET, the SIREN, the DALMATIAN in the old photographs. A word find for community helpers week, or for anyone who still says fireman, with the RESCUE at the end.
Frequently asked questions
Why were DALMATIAN dogs kept at fire stations?
In the horse drawn era they ran alongside the horses to keep them calm and clear the road. The horses left a century ago; the dog stayed as a mascot.
What age is this firefighters word search for?
Kindergarten through third grade. SMOKE and HOSE are easy finds, and the whole grid runs across and down only.
