Safe Helpers and Strangers Poster and Story

Read the story together, then look at the poster and talk about who your child can ask for help. Practice your child's full name and phone number, and choose a place to meet if you get separated.

Two pages. The poster, "Helpers Who Can Help You", shows a police officer, firefighter, nurse, paramedic, crossing guard and store worker, and says "If you are lost or need help, you can ask a helper." The story, "Lost at the Store", tells how Mia gets separated from her dad at the grocery store, stays calm and asks a store worker with a name badge, who helps her find Dad. A "For grown-ups" box suggests talking about who can help and practicing your child's full name and your phone number.

The cause and effect cards, the hidden objects and I Spy pages and the Who Can Help? problem solving cards have an answer key. The rest are games, crafts, posters and templates.

Yes. The Community Helpers Activity Pack gathers 15 Kindergarten to 2nd grade resources, from the job match and word search to flash cards, a wheel craft and posters, in one PDF.
