Kids love community workers! They love their uniforms, their vehicles, and their awesome jobs! In this theme, we will explore the different community workers in our neighborhoods and learn about the different uniforms they wear and the vehicles they drive.
NOTE: Some of the activity links go straight to a pin on Pinterest instead of a blog page. Read the description of the pin for the activity instructions. If you are new here, make sure to check out the Themed Curriculum page for more details about how to use this curriculum. Looking for a different theme? Check out all of our themes here.
