Guest Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Hi I was wondering if anyone could suggest a suitable story for Reception aged children about stranger danger ( or not stranger as it more often seems to be in this day and age!). It is something that has come up with one of my parents and as we all know it's a fine line between creating an awareness and knocking confidence and creating worry. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. PS Funny isn't it how the snow closes school and what's the first thing I think of doing!!!!

Susan Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I think many of the traditional tales can be used----Red Riding Hood, Goldilocks etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Yes, we've used Red Riding hood and also 'Lost on the beach' and other 'Lost' books to generate conversation about what to do if they get lost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Are the 'Lost' series all written by a particular author? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 There's a great story called Rover - very funny - written from the point of view of the dog who finds his little girl after she's wandered off at the beach. Not to heavy for little ones but shows how frightening it is for parents and carers when they don't know where their children are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
