Dear Parent or Guardian,

Your child has completed the KAPOW program about the world of work. Ask your

child to share with you the program worksheets and projects, which he or she may

have collected in a special briefcase or folder.

We encourage you to find opportunities at home to help make your child aware of

the world of work. Here are a few ideas for activities you might do.

► Discuss your early work experiences, for example summer jobs, babysitting, ordoing chores for neighbors.

► Take your child to work with you. Show him or her how you do your job and explain some other jobs at your workplace.

► Point out jobs your child can do at home (setting the table, putting clothes andtoys away), in the neighborhood (caring for pets), or at school {helping with a fund-raising activity).

► Encourage your child to see activities he or she can do now that may lead towork later. For example, a child who takes a part in school plays may become a lighting director or a costume designer; a child who is a good swimmer may help a swimming instructor demonstrate strokes now and later take a course to become a lifeguard.

For the final KAPOW project, your child has completed a letter about favorite
