Talking To Children About Work

*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. For example, when you take them to see the doctor, they will ask questions about what the doctor is doing, and more about their job. Children will enjoy the idea of choosing a job and earning money for doing that and will often role-play different careers through play but as they get older, the idea of getting a job, choosing a career or a business area becomes more of a reality. So how do we have conversations with our children that help them gain a good foundation for their future working lives?
