Materials: crayons, glue, craft sticks, and pre-cut shapes: one red rectangle, two black circles, one red square, and one white square per fire truck. Tip: If you don’t have construction paper in different colors, you can use white paper and color it with crayons.
- Kids can glue the shapes to a piece of paper to make a fire truck. Use positional words to direct them:
- Glue the rectangle to the middle.
- Glue the circles under the rectangle.
- Glue the red square next to the rectangle.
- Glue the white square inside the red square.
- Let kids draw themselves in the white square. To make a ladder, kids can glue on two craft sticks and draw lines between them.
