Abstract | This activity booklet is designed to help preschool teachers and caregivers prepare preschoolers to deal with issues of self-esteem, problem solving, health and safety awareness, and crime, drug, and violence prevention on developmentally appropriate levels. It provides background information on drug and violence prevention for 4- and 5-year-olds, on communication with children about drugs, and on the physical, mental, and social development of preschoolers. The booklet contains 19 group activities for use with preschoolers that focus on group cooperation/conflict management/peer interaction; health/safety and self-esteem. These areas address such issues as unsafe situations; tobacco, alcohol, and drug avoidance; child safety and firearms; healthy eating habits and community pride. The activities are carried out through song, charades, strong problem-solving, and visual discrimination. Many of the activities contain reproducible letters to inform parents about the activity's purpose and goals. A guide for parents, a list of resource groups, and a user evaluation form are included.
