Summary:
Timon and Pumbaa from Disney's The Lion King are Wild about Safety. With their Safety Smart checklist in hand, the two friends inspect a possible new home to make sure it is a safe place to live. Their investigation turns up plenty of safety problems, and in the end Timon and Pumbaa decide there's no place better than the home they're in now. Students in kindergarten through third grade join the lovable characters and discover the importance of always being on the lookout for safety problems. Together with Timon and Pumbaa, they learn safety lessons such as never overload an electrical outlet; don't cook without adult supervision, and keep space heaters away from flammable items. Through it all, they discover a variety of ways to help themselves and others avoid injuries and be Safety Smart!
