What are the Police Appreciation Cards?

A cover and 6 pages with 2 cards on each. Every card has a different message, such as for keeping our community safe!, for being so brave! and for keeping our roads safe!, and a From line. The directions on each page read: Color a card and write your name. Then cut it out and give it to a police officer.
Can I use the Police Appreciation Cards at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for Preschool to 2nd Grade community helpers, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How do I set up a community helpers dramatic play center?
⌄
Pick one setting, such as the fire station, post office or doctor's office, print its signs, labels and cutouts, and add a few real props. The badges and the job application form let children choose a role and take turns.
Which resources have an answer key?

The Community Helper Counting to 10 Clip Cards have an answer key. The rest are open activities, signs and crafts.
