Community Career Example for Child - GENERAL SURGEON : 5.5" Vinyl Toy Figure

Description

Up for sale is solid vinyl figure of a community general surgeon. The freestanding figure stands approximately 5.5 inches tall.
The figure was produced by Lakeshore Learning as an educational toy for home or school. The Lakeshore community people were created with realistic details and represented a variety of occupations and ethnicities. The idea was to help children to understand different occupations and the roles of these occupations within the community.
The figures may also be used to celebrate individual members of these occupations who are part of your family. They could be used as a part of a display case scene created in a business office, a local shop, or a community building to celebrate one's village, town, or city. They also make nice display statutes/figures on an individual's bookshelf or desk.
The display and discussion of the important role played by this career in the community creates a focus for the child’s pretend play and can help foster 1) imaginative play; 2) personal and social skills; and 3) problem solving. These figures depicting men and women in various careers and could serve as conversation starters when you talk about jobs and community workers. Each figure was constructed in realistic detail with a few realistic detailed objects showing the "tools" of each worker's trade.
This figure is preowned and has been handled. It remains in good to very good condition. It has no major paint loss spots but has a few stray marks from having been played with. See photos.
