Example of a completed paper firetruck

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:
  1.  Glue the rectangle to the middle.

  2.  Glue the circles under the rectangle.

  3.  Glue the red square next to the rectangle.

  4.  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.
