Community Helpers Dress-Up Costume Set | 6-Piece Career Outfits with Props for Ages 3–6
Inspire imaginative play and introduce young learners to important community roles with the Community Helpers Dress-Up Costume Set—a 6-piece collection designed for preschool and early elementary classrooms. This engaging set allows children ages 3 to 6 to step into the shoes of everyday heroes while building language, social, and emotional development through pretend play.
Each costume is thoughtfully crafted to reflect recognizable community careers, including a Chef with a traditional white hat, a Mail Carrier complete with a postal bag, a Surgeon with scrubs, a Doctor featuring a stethoscope for check-ups, a Firefighter with props for action-packed rescue missions, and a Police Officer ready to protect and serve. The realistic details and easy-to-wear designs make these costumes ideal for little learners to dress independently during dramatic play sessions, circle time, or career-themed lessons.
Durable and comfortable, the outfits are made from kid-friendly materials that are machine washable and built to withstand classroom use. This set encourages children to explore different roles, practice communication, and engage in collaborative storytelling with peers—all while learning about the helpers who make our communities safe, healthy, and functional.
