Beck Traffic Pedestrian Crossing Sign

The sign warns that people may be crossing the road ahead, so cars should slow and be ready to stop. In play it marks the spot where figures walk across, giving children a clear point to pause their vehicles and let a pedestrian pass safely.

As one of the Beck wooden traffic signs toys, the crossing sign turns a simple road into a place where cars and people share space. Children stop a car at the sign, walk a figure across, then let the car move on, acting out the give and take of a real crossing.

Place it right beside the point where figures step onto the road. Standing it near the traffic light lets children match the walk signal to the crossing, so together they show how a controlled crossing keeps cars and people apart at a busy corner.

It stands 100mm in height and is made from maple wood, matching the other flat Beck signs so a row lines up neatly. The base keeps it upright next to the road while children move cars and figures around the crossing.

The recommended age is 3 and over, and it is not suitable for children under 36 months due to small parts and a choking hazard. Older preschoolers can set up the crossing and act out the scene on their own.

Yes. Clean the maple wood with a dry or slightly damp cloth and dry it at once. Keep it away from water and out of strong sunlight so the wood stays flat and the printed crossing stays easy to read.
