Police Day is one of my favorite preschool days. Watching the kids watch the helicopter land brings such joy to my heart:)
The city police have been so gracious the last three years for giving us their time to come in and give the kids a hand-on police experience. They learn that police aren't mean-they are there help us.
As I stated in an email, the primary question the kids wanted answered was why lights on police vehicles blink. This was asked at least 4 or 5 times!
During our last group time of the day, we read a wonderful Caldecott Award winning book called, "Officer Buckley and Gloria." It's about a police officer who goes to different schools making safety presentations.

Awww!! I love these pictures! I'm sure there was a great sense of anticipation from the kids as the helicopter landed!
ReplyDeleteOlivia talked about this day a lot! I think it was a huge success, at least for her, making her realize that police are not scary and are here to help!
