Haiku Alarm!

The kids are asleep
The fire alarm goes off
Beep beep beep beep beep!

Nobody wakes up
The deafening beeps don’t work
Three minutes go by

The kids sleep soundly
What a scary thought for us
Imagine your kids

You go out at night
The older one babysits
They all go to sleep

Soon a fire starts
Alarm doesn’t work for them
They sleep right through it

Here’s a solution
Kids will wake up to your voice
Get a new alarm

Record your own voice
Your voice plus some beeps work well
Less than a minute


Feel free to link here
To warn your readers of this
Or just write your own

You know, I asked for this product for Christmas after seeing it on the news, too. I didn't get it but will be now. Yikes. Thanks so much for the reminder.

I've not heard of this previously, but think I will pass the information on to my niece & nephew with 3 young kids. Thanks for sharing.
Hugs and blessings,

That's a wonderful idea. I've never heard of it, but it sounds like a great investment.
