Product Actions
Why you'll love this product
-
Mechanical lift for hands-on play
Purposeful play with the mechanical lift helps children develop fine motor skills through repeated, hands-on movements and clear cause-and-effect action as they move cars to the top floor.
-
Fixed firefighters add story detail
Two firefighter characters remain fixed to the ramp as they sit on the sliding pole. This visual feature helps children represent actions and roles within consistent emergency stories.
-
Responsibly resourced wood
Fixed firefighter figures and scene props provide consistent roles for pretend play and shared stories, supporting speech, role taking and narrative development.
-
Several vehicles for role play
The vehicles support the EYFS Communication and Language aim by helping children choose roles, develop spoken narratives and respond to others’ ideas during fire station role play.
Small World Wooden Emergency Station
A small world emergency rescue station for imaginative fire station role play.
Overview
Create firefighting narratives with a multi-storey wooden setting, vehicles and characters to support imaginative small world play.
Practitioners can use the emergency setting for small world role play, with two cars, an ambulance, a fire truck and a helicopter to prompt children to choose roles, move vehicles and build spoken narratives. The multi-storey scene offers a defined context for shared storytelling, while the mechanical lift adds repeated hands-on movement.
This supports the EYFS Communication and Language aim of encouraging children to take on different roles in imaginative play. It also supports the Expressive Arts and Design aim to begin developing complex stories using small world equipment, as children decide what happens next and create events within the emergency scene.
The resource supports EYFS aims linked to using props and materials when role playing characters in narratives, and to developing pretend play. It measures 42 x 68 x 32 cm and uses responsibly resourced wood. Practitioners should remove all packaging before children use the item.
