Streamers flew and smoke alarms beeped as NFPA?kicked off its long-term partnership with?LEGOLAND? Florida?to provide lifesaving information to families and kids during a press event and special fire safety day at central Florida?s newest theme park yesterday.

?The majority of fire deaths happen in homes where there are no working smoke alarms,? said NFPA President Jim Shannon. ?We are excited to join with LEGOLAND Florida to impart two extremely important messages - test your smoke alarms and have an escape?plan.?
NFPA will sponsor the park?s fire safety - themed ?The Big Test? live show at the LEGO? City Stage where these messages will be incorporated. ?The Big Test? is?an acrobatic, comedy show in which a cast of characters goes through a series of hysterical antics as they try to become firefighters.?There will also be special activities throughout the year that stress the importance of fire safety and acknowledge the critical work of the fire service.

During the kick-off event, hundreds of kids and families tested smoke alarms, learned ways to stay safe and posed for pictures with area firefighters in full gear before sitting down to watch the highly acclaimed ?The Big Test?.
?This partnership allows us to combine kids? love of the fire service and LEGOLAND to build life-saving knowledge,? said Adrian Jones, LEGOLAND Florida general manager. ?We are proud to play this important role for our community.?
