I am supposed to go to my childrens' school for career day. It will be for first grade and fifth grade. Any ideas on how to make it interesting?

Props? Props are always good. Kids need a visual. Dress in scrubs and wear your stethoscope.

How exciting for you to present on career day! Good for you! Good for the world :)

maybe you could bring them all a surgical mask and a pair of vinyl gloves. Or syringes minus the needle to pretend with.

The older kids might like to take each other's blood pressure or at least listen with a stethoscope or even look in each others ears w/ an otoscope.

maybe as an activity you could help them each set up a first aid kit to take home with them (bandaids, gauze, alcohol prep, gloves etc)

My kids are about that age and they love finding eachothers heart beat with my old stethasope.
