Introducing Theme Day: Trains

This week is all about TRAINS


Introduction
Show a picture of a Train to your little one (double the fun. Print up this coloring page here, that way you have some a "wing-it" coloring activity):
Ask:
What is this?
What does it do?
What sound does it make?
Show that trains ride on tracks.
What letter does train start with? This is the letter of the week!


Let's also check out this fun song about trains



Craft
I really like this tutorial found at firstpallette.com. Here is the original link



Materials

  • Printable paper
  • Construction paper
  • Crayons or colored pencils
  • Glue stick
  • Scissors
  • Ruler
  • Pencil
  • Animal magazine cut-outs (optional)
Prep: Print up animal templates. Since my little one's version of coloring is one streak across the page, I figured I would do the colored ones, although they have black and white ones as well!
