Holding a stuffed dog the size of herself, two-and-a-half-year-old Lucy Hillier walks backwards dragging her toy to safety as her brother gives her some encouragement.
"You're almost there, Lucy," Isaac Hillier, 4, said.
The eldest Hillier sibling has set up mock fire rescues in his backyard many times before. But last weekend, their grandparents put together a more polished mock course, equipped with pylons and a slide.

Alex Hillier, the children's father, is a firefighter in Corner Brook and has competed many times at FireFit challenges— a firefighter competition involving essential on-the-job tasks — regionally and nationally.
"Even before being at a FireFit competition himself, [Isaac] got the idea from watching videos of his Dad competing in 2016," mom Ashlee Hillier said.
