this is not your typical ken doll. he is dressed in firefighting gear. he's rugged. he's fun to use during pretend play.
if your child looks up to someone who is a firefighter or says he or she want to be a firefighter someday, this is the perfect doll.
for homeschooling, you could research a firefighter's lifestyle. how many days a week do they work? where do they sleep? what is the best part about firefighting? how do you learn to be a firefighter? do firefighters have different kinds of jobs at work? how are different kinds of fires categorized?
examples of facts:
- many firefighters earn college degrees, often in fire science.
- firefighters must learn many skills, including how to help hurt people with first aid, CPR, how to quickly rescue people (called emergency response), and the methods to extinguish a forest or house fire.
- a firefighter must be extra strong and work hard to stay physically fit. they often carry very heavy items, sometimes including people. they need to climb stairs and ladders, often carrying extremely heavy equipment and wearing heavy protective gear and boots.
anyone who becomes a firefighter goes through lots of training. they practice skills all the time. they work as a team.
a firefighter is hardworking and brave. many could be called a real-life hero.
