Montessori-inspired Fire Vehicle Activities with Free Printables
Fire Safety Gear Nomenclature Cards
Fire vehicles come with firefighters, who often wear a lot of gear. This gear can be frightening to children, if they aren't familiar with it.
These nomenclature cards are a great way to introduce fire safety gear in a safe and non-scary way.
If your child isn't a fan of nomenclature cards, you can use the cards to play a memory game or as a control in a more hands-on activity.
Firefighter dress up clothes may be a way to enhance the activity.

Fire Safety Gear Writing Strips
Some children learn best when they are reading. Other children best through writing.
These writing strips are for children who love to write.
A print and cursive option are available.
Whether you have a beginning writer who prefers tracing, or one that loves writing, there's an option for both.
I like to laminate cards and use white board markers to save on paper and allow repetitive use.
Learning about fire safety gear has never come with so many options.

For the kid who wants to know EVERYTHING, there is a second set of nomenclature cards provided that introduce all of the gear firefighters use and is available on their vehicles.
Fire Vehicles Land, Air, and Water Sort
Land, air, and water sorts are some of my favorite Montessori preschool activities. They are so much fun and such a great introduction to geography concepts.
In this activity, children sort fire vehicles.
Many children are familiar with firetrucks, but what about fireboats and airplanes that are used to put out fires?
You can use your own jars filled with dirt, air, and water, or use the cards provided in the printable.

Fire Safety Nomenclature Cards
You can choose to use cards as nomenclature cards, as a memory game, or as something else.
If I were planning a field trip to the fire station, I would choose to use many of these cards as a scavenger hunt at the fire station, with the permission of the fire chief.

Pin poking is such a fabulous way to develop fine motor skills, especially those needed for writing. In this activity kids pin poke the outline of the firetruck until it can be freed from the paper.

If you don't feel comfortable with pin poking, kids could use this printable for coloring, painting, or other art projects.
