A guy moving a lawn. Behind him is a giant rhinoceros. A little further away, a group of children play gleefully. One of the children shouts, "Yay, nature!" The text reads: Do you know what's out there?! It might be a rhinoceros or it might be a child. Always clear your lawn of objects and bystanders before mowing. Always look behind you before backing up your mower.

It's almost space heater season.
Three figures in dark robes stand before a castle as the moon rises. The castle is on fire! The first figure has a face made out of a space heater. The next figure has a face made out of an extension cord. The third figure has a face made out of a power strip. The text reads: Home safety traitors. Always plug your space heater directly into the wall, never a power strip. Keep it at least 3ft away from flammable items. Turn it off before you leave a room or go to sleep.

Parents - is your college kid living in off-campus housing? Check to make sure there are working smoke alarms, carbon monoxide alarms, and fire extinguishers in their home.

Always lay your baby down to sleep on their back in a product designed for safe sleep.
A baby sitting in a catapult in a suburban backyard. The baby seems surprised to be there. The text reads: Is this a safe sleep environment for your baby? No! This is a catapult! Put your baby to sleep flat on their back in a crib, bassinet, play yard, bedside sleeper or other product designed for safe sleep. If your baby falls asleep in a car seat or other product not designed for sleep, move them to a safe sleep space.

If you're headed to work right now, thanks. If you're already at work, thanks again. If you're just waking up, there's nothing more exhilarating than testing the fire alarm at 7AM.
