I got 90% only because the quiz and I seem to disagree on question #4
Question 4: How often should your family practice its escape route for a fire?
A: Once a month
B: Once each year
C: Twice each year
The correct answer is C. In a fire, panic and confusion can occur - especially with young children. As smoke fills a house, people can become confused. You should practice how to escape from every room, and where to meet outside so that parents can account for the family. It is recommended that you practice this twice a year.

I got 100%, but I had a different question for #4. Actually, I didn't have that question at all. How was I supposed to cheat then. 
Thanks for posting that GEL! I got 100% (and did not have the fire escape question either)... I ordered the fingerprint/dna kit. My son's daycare makes up those little id tags every year for the kids.
Scott ~ I think twice a year is sufficient for practicing escaping, that's what we used to do when we were young... once a month is a bit excessive (totally just my opinion
)... my son is still too young, and can't get out of his crib on his own (thankfully 
). But even once he's in a 'big boy bed' we probably will not talk to him about escaping a fire on his own until he's 4. I think anytime before that he'd be too young to take it all in and remember it, though we will show him to crawl down low...
His daycare actually had two firemen come into the school to visit last month. They talked about what to do in a fire (this was geared to the pre-school kids, but any of the toddler 2 kids who were awake were invited to sit in - my son did). One of them got into full gear and walked around so that the kids knew what they'd see if there ever was a fire in the house, so they'd know not to be afraid. Then he took off all his gear and said "see, it's just me under here" etc etc... my son was then very excited when I told him we had to go vote at the "fire truck station". LOL...

hmmmm I don't remember the practice fire escape question either, maybe there is a random generator for the questions so that you can't cheat
