On Wednesday, Meteorologist Lauren Brand visited some very excited kindergartners at Gold Camp Elementary School.
She visited to help teach students about the importance of safety with severe weather in Colorado. Lauren taught them the safest places to go during severe weather and what to do if they are outside.
With plenty of winter storms that roll through Colorado, they also discussed what to have in a winter safety kit. From extra flashlights to extra food and medicine, they had so many great ideas.
Their teachers have been doing such a great job teaching them all about the weather!
