More about this collection
Use the pages to talk about jobs your child sees in real life and those they have never seen. Ask what tools each helper uses, how they help people, and what your child might like to do one day. It is a natural way to talk about kindness, community and the different ways people contribute.
The colouring pages show people of many backgrounds and abilities doing every kind of job, so every child can see themselves in the pictures. It is a popular early-years and primary topic, and the pages work well for a classroom display, a role-play corner or a visit from a real helper such as a firefighter or nurse.
How to use these
- Match each helper to their tools or vehicle.
- Thank a real helper you meet this week.
- Ask “what would you like to be?” and draw it.
