Develop an emergency communication plan in case family members are separated during a quake - a highly likely possibility during the day. Teach children how and when to call 911, police, or the fire department and which radio or tv station to tune into for emergency information.

Ask an out-of-state relative to serve as the family contact because after a quake it is easier to call long distance than local.
