Trains Story Time: March 18-19, 2019

Books:
All Aboard the Dinotrain by Deb Lund
Clickey Clack by Amy & Rob Spence *
Freight Train by Donald Crews *
How to Train a Train by Jason Carter Eaton
Zoom! by Diane Adams *

Craft: Name Train
This week's craft was based on the picture above.  Children were given a die cut train engine to color.  They were also given squares to write their name on for the train cars.  The engine, train cars, and wheels were glued to legal paper to spell out the child's name.

Extension Activities:
- Freight Train shows the different types of train cars.  Have your child figure out what each type of train car would carry.
- Visit the Transportation Museum in Kirkwood, MO.  They have several trains for the kids to explore, as well as other modes of transportation.
