Be sure to take this time to talk to your kids about fire safety; stop, drop and roll; an exiting plan in case of a fire; and other related topics.  Fires can happen in the blink of an eye and they are very hectic situations.  The better prepared you and your kids are before the situation arises, the better chance you have of getting out unharmed.
