Sue R Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Hi, this is a sensible request, for once, from me! I am responsible for staff training and development in our Day Nursery. As we have had a huge influx of new trainees recently (always a difficult time for us old hands!! ) I have been asked to do a training session on Health and Safety for our next Staff Meeting, 29/9/04. I am not having any problems with the subject matter, but it is looking a bit dry and potentially boring, so need some fairly light hearted exercises to break it up, whilst still remaining relevant. I had, years ago, some pictures, cartoon-y ones, of a kitchen scene and a park-type scene, in which there were lots of potential hazards to be picked up on by students. I had hoped to use these as one group activity, but can't find them!! Typical. Anyone have anything of this type to share, or know where I could try looking? Or any ideas for fun, related activities? Thanks in advance, Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 They are resurecting Tufty for childrens road safety. Wonder if you could approach it from a child's point of view or perhaps that is trivalising the issue. Just a thought anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue R Posted September 17, 2004 Author Share Posted September 17, 2004 Thank you, Susan. It's a very GOOD thought!! This is probably why you're a Gardener ! I used to think I could think creatively, as well. Ah, well, I must be having a bad week... :wacko: :rolleyes: Off to try to be a child being hazardous... Bliss !!

Sue R Posted September 17, 2004 Author Share Posted September 17, 2004 Sorry. Had to say this - if you look at my last post 'wide-angled', the blinking smilies look like a subliminal morse code message!!!
