My kids are obsessed with all things trucks and construction. This theme was a blast to put together, and my boys had the best time learning and playing.
Construction Preschool Theme
This pack is full of hands on learning activities to practice various math, literacy, and writing skills.
Tool Painting- Grab your play tools and add some PAINT! This is a fun process art activity. Our favorite was our toy drill. The paintbrush fit perfectly into the drill for an awesome painting experience.
Shaving Cream Blocks- We love our foam blocks. I added some shaving cream and my boys had a blast building.
Block Painting- We used the foam blocks again for this painting activity. We dipped the blocks in paint and stamped different designs and buildings.
Building Block Letters- Use blocks to build each letter.
Rock Letters- Use small trucks to find a rock with each letter. Drive it to the matching letter.
Subitizing Number Sort- Sort each number.
Popsicle Stick Letter Build- Build each letter with popsicle sticks. Then trace each letter with dry erase marker.
Counting Rocks- Pick a number card and count that many rocks into the truck.
Dirt Writing Tray- Fill a writing tray with cocoa (dirt). Form each letter in the tray.
Construction Name Craft- Build each child's name with cones. Print with Legos and paint on the background.
Construction Sensory Bin- I threw some black beans, rocks, and toy trucks in this sensory bin. My boys build several chutes and ramps out of recyclables. They were a fun addition to the bin.
Sticky Blocks- I taped Contact paper to the window, and my boys used the foam blocks to build. Building this way was a fun change from building on the ground.
STEM Tray- Popsicle sticks and plastic shot glasses make a simple and fun STEM tray!
Count the Room- Place the counting cards around the room. Walk around the room and count the pictures.
Ten Frame Counting- We used loose parts to count each number on the ten frame.
Dot Measurement- Use dot markers, or dot stickers to measure each line.
Play Dough Letter Fill- Build each letter with rocks or play dough.
Roll and Add- Roll dice and add using nuts and bolts.
Hammer Smash- Use a hammer to read and smash play dough balls. There is a letter and sight word version.
Build a Number- Use popsicle sticks to build each number.
Build a Shape- Use Wikki Stix or Play Doh to build each shape.
Hammer a Letter- Write letters on a foam block. Pick a card and hammer a golf tee into that letter.
