T for Transportation

No pictures today...my camera broke:( Hopefully I get a new one soon!!!

We talked about the letter "T" today, specifically focusing on TRANSPORTATION

We had fun playing "Red Light, Green Light" and learning what RED, YELLOW & GREEN mean on the Traffic Lights. Next time you are stopped at a Traffic Light, ask your child if they remember what each color means!

We had fun making STOP SIGNS with GO SIGNS on the back, so the children could play "Red Light, Green Light" at home!

During free play we had fun with TRAINS & CARS!

We also watched part of a THOMAS THE TRAIN episode while we ate snack:)

Here is a fun TRANSPORTATION song you can sing with your child:

DOWN BY THE STATION
Tune: “Down By The Station”

Down by the station
Early in the morning.
See the little puffers
Standing in a row.

See the station master
Turn a little handle.
Chug, chug, chug, chug,
Off they go!

Talk about the letter T this week with your child and point out different words that begin with the letter T!
