Community and Roadway Essentials Set {Guidecraft Educator #Giveaway}

As a Guidecraft educator, there are many learning tools that I have had the privilege of reviewing over the years.  And what I love best is when different tools complement each other.  In the past we have had the privilege of reviewing the Guidecraft Roadway system and Traffic Signs and the Community buildings.  And today we have another set to add on to that series.

Guidecraft Community and Roadway Essentials Set

As a child I remember watching the famous childhood television show Sesame Street.  And there was this song about the people in your neighborhood:

Now that you have your community set up with buildings and roads, all you need are the people in your neighborhood.  The Guidecraft Community and Roadway Essentials are a great add on to learn about community.  Complete with people, signs and cars you can learn all about who is in your community and what makes up a community.

This learning tool can teach children about what their community is made up of and how to behave in traffic.  By learning about signs, children can practice what to do in their community and how to be safe.

Made of solid wood construction, these learning tools can take the wear and tear a child will put on them and still be just as valuable as the day you got them.  The set comes with 6 vehicles, 12 signs, 6 community people and 2 separate 4 piece families, all from different ethnic backgrounds.

This is a great addition to any classroom or home to learn about what is in a community and how a town works.  The bright colors and sturdy construction draws children in and makes them want to learn.

We live in a small town, and my mother-in-law taught at the high school for all of her working life, so my kids are able to learn about the community just by participating in it - after school clubs, library activities, walking around downtown or by the lake, etc.

I am teaching and have taught my kids about community by showing and volunteering at centers and shelters around our town. It is one to teach about something but they remember better through action - empathizing with others and their lives

We take regular walks through town and discuss what we see along the way. Sometimes we do a scavenger hunt bingo.

As a child, I watched Mr. Roger's neighborhood. As a preschool teacher, I take my kids out in the community and read an array of stories.
