You could do a week of activities about being a lollipop person

We are currently doing this topic.
We have visited the doctors surgery and met the doctors and nurses, visited the post office and used this a a practical life skill to buy stamps and post a letter, we have crossed the road with the lollypop person, visited the mechanics and had a look around their workshop.
Within the home we have made a post box which we use for role play, have emergency services vehicles in the small world area etc.
We have also been learning the makaton signs for all these people.
