From always carrying around a Band-Aid in case of a scrape to pulling out hand sanitizer to ward away germs to installing only the best car seats, parents continually have the safety of their children on their mind.
But just as much as the idea of driving down the block with your child not securely strapped in sounds laughable, this year Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs want us to take a vital step to keep our kids safe at home as well with the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery campaign.
![Change Your Clock Change Your Battery](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOIg7_U7pMzWUqjjpNssYJN8jhMEqpBA4ezNCViJlgmPqc4mwJ1yTaqJDscyQ-nNNWMfB6iSrK32jY-W50_NriYg0SGNirp1-KztwNMuJ6Tn5zok-xDsoZvmkVF-hjqtJErTrlf8pfIpig/s400/Change+Your+Clock+Change+Your+Battery+Logo.jpg)

"Each year, thousands of lives are forever changed due to the devastating effects of a home fire," said Chief Al H. Gillespie, president and chairman of the board of the International Association of Fire Chiefs. "A working smoke alarm is an important defense for surviving a home fire. That's why public information and education efforts being undertaken by fire departments with the support of Energizer is a vital component to keeping communities across the nation safe and sound."

I change the batteries when the time changes.
If it beeps, it gets changed. Squeaky-wheel method, I guess.

I don't change my smoke detector batteries very often. I will do so with Daylight Savings this year.

When the beeping noise starts on our smoke detector, we change the battery. We don't change it at Daylight Savings Time change.
