Talking To Children About Work

Posted on by Emma Reed

*Collaborative Post

Talking to children about work usually begins from when they are small, from saying about the fireman driving past to the shopkeeper’s role and the many other different people they see working in day-to-day life. Children are naturally curious and will ask questions about everyone they meet.

So how do we have conversations with our children that help them gain a good foundation for their future working lives?
