 Sparky®
the Fire Dog Robot
The Sparky robot is an especially exciting tool for teaching fire and safety
awareness because it is so interactive.
Audiences will be delighted when Sparky's eyes look around, wink
and blink, his emergency lights and siren are activated, and he drives his fire
truck around the room, carrying on conversations and playing music - all by remote
control.
Sparky the Fire Dog is the best-know figure in fire prevention today. A trademark
character of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Sparky is at the
center of the NFPA's Risk Watch® and Learn Not to Burn® programs, two of the most
comprehensive safety programs in existence.
