Who puts out fires, who bakes cakes, who treats patients, and who protects the city? With this colorful game, children explore key professions, learn to match items by meaning, and develop speech through guided play. It’s a perfect way to broaden horizons and play “real life” roles in a fun and accessible format.
Base board with 4 illustrated professions: doctor, chef, police officer, firefighter
4 wooden figure inserts representing each character
12 profession-related item pieces (syringe, mixer, fire extinguisher, police badge, etc.)
Each insert fits only its matching slot — promoting logical association and precision
Name the profession and describe what that person does.
Match each character with the correct set of items.
Encourage conversation: How are a doctor and firefighter different?
Add challenge: ask the child to invent a new profession and what tools it might need.
