This might be a silly question regarding required monthly fire evacuation drills but am I supposed to get all the kids' coats/winter gear on (we've been lucky if it reaches 10 degrees this winter) and their shoes on during the drill? The form says the maximum amount of time it should take is 2 minutes. I just don't see how I could get them out in 2 minutes if I have to get them all ready to go outside (not to mention having to carry 4 out of the 5 kids downstairs). I know in a real fire emergency I may not have time to put their coats on, but it's just so cold outside this winter not to have coats on.
