Cue the Drum Loop

Are you curious what FEMA’s been spending money on? Well, here’s one project: FEMA for Kids Rap. (Hat tip: Riding Sun.)

Cue the drum loop.

Disaster . . . it can happen anywhere,
But we’ve got a few tips, so you can be prepared
For floods, tornadoes, or even a ‘quake,
You’ve got to be ready - so your heart don’t break.

Disaster prep is your responsibility
And mitigation is important to our agency.

People helping people is what we do
And FEMA is there to help see you through
When disaster strikes, we are at our best
But we’re ready all the time, ‘cause disasters don’t rest.

The page above contains an audio file to which you can listen if you don’t mind losing your will to live.

Here's mine.....

FEMA = FOOLS ENGAGING MILITARY ACTION

FEMA, not effective, but culturally sensitive. Very reassuring.

Disaster prep is your responsibility

For kids? What about the parents?
