This cut-out road template pack is a creative and fun resource for developing shape recognition and motor skills. It can also serve as a valuable tool for teaching essential lessons about road safety.
This versatile pack provides an ideal platform to impart crucial road safety knowledge in an engaging and interactive manner.
Creating road scenarios
Use the cut-out road templates to construct various scenarios within a controlled environment. By placing road signs, pedestrian crossings and traffic lights along the roads, you can introduce children to the concept of traffic regulations and road infrastructure.
These simple additions can help them understand how roads work and the importance of following rules while on the road.
Role play and miniature vehicles
Children can role play as both pedestrians and drivers. They can also learn about the significance of looking both ways before crossing and following traffic signals.
They can also learn about the various types of vehicles and their purposes, which can promote discussions about road safety measures for different types of road users.
Discussion and storytelling
Each road template can serve as a conversation starter. Engage children in discussions about their road experiences, emphasising the importance of always holding an adult’s hand when crossing the road and using seatbelts in vehicles.
You can weave stories or scenarios involving road safety into play sessions to reinforce these lessons.
