Knowing when to replace a smoke alarm can make all the difference—and that’s a lesson worth celebrating. Alert Bert’s “Don’t Wait–Check the Date” award is a fun and memorable certificate that recognizes students who have learned why checking the age of smoke alarms is so important for home safety.

Families don’t always realize that smoke alarms should be replaced every ten years. Teaching children to check the date on smoke alarms helps them bring that life-saving message home to parents and caregivers.

Featuring Alert Bert, this certificate reinforces the idea that fire safety isn’t just about having smoke alarms installed. It’s about making sure they’re still working properly and haven’t reached the end of their life.

Use these certificates during Fire Prevention Week programs, classroom fire safety lessons, and safety events. After students learn about smoke alarm maintenance, they can proudly receive this certificate as recognition for becoming fire safety champions.

Kids love earning awards, and this certificate helps turn an important fire safety lesson into a proud accomplishment they’ll want to share at home.
