Worksheet for children to sort stranger situations into safe and potentially dangerous categories.

I'll help you sort these stranger situations into safe and potentially dangerous categories. Let me work through each scenario carefully.

Step-by-step analysis:

1. At the Shops - You're paying for milk, giving money to a cashier who is doing their job (bagging items, giving change). This is a normal transaction with someone working there.
→ SAFE

2. At the Supermarket - A lady approaches when you're separated from your cousin and wants to take you to the car park alone. Strangers shouldn't lead children away to isolated areas.
→ POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS

3. At the Park - A man offers ice cream claiming to be your mum's friend, but you don't know him. Never accept food or go anywhere with strangers, even if they claim to know your family.
→ POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS

4. Crossing the Road - The lollipop lady (crossing guard) is in uniform with official equipment, doing her job to help children cross safely.
→ SAFE

5. On the Playground - An adult at the fence calls you over claiming to be a parent, but you don't recognize them. Don't approach fences or talk to unknown adults.
→ POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS

6. At School - A performer asks you to show them where the staffroom is inside the school building during school hours. This is inside a supervised environment.
→ SAFE

7. At the Activity Centre - An unknown adult (not a teacher or instructor) encourages you to follow them into the woods alone. Never go anywhere secluded with strangers.
→ POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS

8. At the Library - The librarian approaches to help you find books and make recommendations. This is their job in a public, supervised space.
→ SAFE

Final Answer:

SAFE STRANGER SITUATIONS:
- At the Shops (cashier helping with purchase)
- Crossing the Road (lollipop lady/crossing guard helping)
- At School (performer asking directions inside school)
- At the Library (librarian helping with book recommendations)

POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS STRANGER SITUATIONS:
- At the Supermarket (stranger trying to lead you to car park)
- At the Park (stranger offering ice cream, claiming to know your mum)
- On the Playground (unknown adult calling you to fence)
- At the Activity Centre (unknown adult encouraging you to follow into woods)
