Nothing quite catches your attention like a huge honking sound from a fire truck.

Now imagine encountering that sudden shock of sonic boom if you’re under 5-years-old – the imagination can run wild with infinite possibilities.

The City of Beachwood hosted a free event Sunday afternoon where kids had a chance to tinker with the sirens of squad cars and climb up on snow plows.

It was all part of the Honkin' Haulin' Hands-On Trucks event that was held Sunday afternoon at the Beachwood Municipal Service Center where kids could also get a street named after them or receive a special driver’s license to ride around on a special track.

The event was free and open to the public.

And another added benefit to the festivities: Kids and parents also avoided another Browns’ loss to open the season on a perfect weather afternoon.

Here’s a few images from the day.
