We love teaching about Community Helpers to kids! They feel safer and like the communities they live in are orderly and have people that can help them.

This lesson shows a set of printable 3-part cards that children can use to be introduced to 16 names and images of community helpers.

It is for kids of all ages, especially if you want the perfect introduction of community helpers in preschool!

Here are some fun community helper stories to read with the kids!

Community Helpers for Preschool, Kinder & Elementary

For your community helpers lesson plan, be sure to use these fun 3-part cards! Simply download them in this post, print them out TWICE in color and cut them out like 3-part cards.

One set will have the name attached to the image and the second set will have the pictures and names cut apart.

Kids will then match up the images with and without names. It is important to point out the names for the community helpers and point out the way they dress and how to tell them apart.

Don’t forget to also talk about what they do for their job and how they benefit our communities!

Here are some more resources about teaching on community helpers for those kids who love hands-on activities. Have the kids make their own community helpers out of play dough!

Or have pre K, preschool and kindergarten kids dress up as community members! These are awesome pretend play preschool activities! They will definitely love dramatic play.
