Trip to the Fire Station 🧑‍🚒

[Stephanymtr]

I would like to organize a trip to the fire station!

I think this would be super fun and interesting for the children.

Bombeiros Voluntários de Braga Address: Largo Paulo Orósio, 4700-036 Braga

I called them and spoke to bombeira Leticia. We can visit them anytime we want. There is no need to schedule an appointment. Children will be able to walk around and see the fire engines from the inside. 🚒 She even said "bring the whole family" 😄 which means they will welcome a few adults and few kids at a time 🥳

When can we go ? 🧯

@Stephanymtr thanks very much for opening this issue an reaching out to them as we discussed. 🙏 🎉 Very keen to do this ASAP while it's "fresh" in our son's mind. ⏳

Related: What will he/we wear for the outing? 💭

Please research if we can find a Fireman Outfit/Costume e.g: https://www.toysrus.pt/?query=disfarce+bombeiro

Maybe @iteles can source one on her new favourite site ... Vinted 🎉 https://www.vinted.pt/vetements?search_text=fireman&size_id[]=622

That we can get for him to wear on the trip (and as often as he wants so) ideally not plastic (junk).

He can wear his regular clothes. He doesn't need an outfit for the occasion. Plus now is a terrible time to buy this kind of thing because next week is carnaval so there is a Huge amount of junk to wade through in searches and prices are artificially high.

Love this!

@iteles this fireperson helmet I shared above €2.00 (+shipping) doesn't look that bad ... 🤷‍♂️ But totally take your point. It's not a good time to buying "costumes" just before Carnaval. 🙃 Still think it would be cool for him to have an outfit. Doesn't have to be for the first visit. 💭 When I visited the Firestation when I was a kid, I went in my Ninja Turtles costume. 🐢 😜
