KidSmart Vocal Smoke Detector

According to the National Safe Kids Campaign, over 40% of residential fire-related injuries among children result from panic and irrational behavior, such as hiding under the bed or in a closet. Many adults are also confused by the sudden loud noise of an alarm. Rather than a shrill alarm, the KidSmart Vocal Smoke Detector lets you record a message providing instructions in case of a fire emergency. Research has shown that children react more effectively in an emergency with a 'familiar voice' from a parent or other loved one. The KidSmart Vocal Smoke Detector provides the means of alerting your children (whether awake or in a sound sleep) and instructing them to get to safety. $69.95; www.kidsmartvsa.com
