Are you looking for simple land, air, and water vehicles activities for young children? These ideas were a huge hit with our young ones.

It can be extremely difficult to present with vehicle themed activities that don't distract from the learning process. 

I was super excited that these vehicle themed activities encouraged learning, used tangible objects, and incorporated an interest the kids have.

Land, Air and Water Vehicles

This week marks the last week of our vehicle unit.  Hooray for me!  The boys will be sad though I'm sure.  To wrap our unit up we focused on the difference between land, air, and water vehicles.  This way we could include any and all vehicles we've not talked about during the month so far.

Vehicle Spelling Activity

I loved these letter print outs and decided to create words with one copy so the kids could match up the letters, if they weren't ready to spell the words themselves.  

If they were ready to spell the words themselves, I loved that the letters had pictures on them, so they knew what letters to use for each word.

Vehicle Books for Young Readers

Dinomite is doing so well with his reading, I decided to put a reading activity on the shelves.  He did so well with it!  I love having access to our local public library system!

Vehicle Patterns

All of the kids are fabulous at finishing a pattern that's already established, so I decided to go a step further and have them create their own patterns from the start.  I found the vehicle erasers at our local dollar store.  They all did a fabulous job!

Land, Air & Water Vehicle Sorting

I loved the visual concept of this activity when I saw it.  The kiddos liked it too, especially when sorting their vehicles between the three jars.  I had a blast making the vehicle cards.  There were at least six in each category.

Vehicle Silly Band Tweezer Activity

This activity appeared trickier than it looked, which I loved.  The boys LOVED pulling out vehicle silly bands one by one, trying to figure out what shape they were, before transferring them into the other container.

I love how simple and easy these activities were to put together, yet they were so inviting because they were vehicle themed activities.
