Have you ever smelled a pickle after it has been electrocuted? Maybe not, but your kids probably have! Electricity is an important part of our day-to-day lives, but it can also be very dangerous. To help educate on electrical safety, many utilities have free in-school programs that offer fun and engaging electrical presentations to kids from kindergarten to grade 8. Pickles included!
