I’ll be featuring those posts, as well as a few other sites. Enjoy, and be sure to link up your recent posts below if you’re a blogger. If not, have fun looking around. 🙂

Thanks so much for sharing our indoor snowy car ramp! Now I’m off to see all the other fun transportation ideas I can do with my kiddos!
I’m excited for my next transportation theme in preschool — so many great ideas collected here! Your snowy car ramp is a MUST!
Thanks for featuring my craft!
I loved your idea of creating a bridge out of cardboard! Thanks for linking up! 🙂
Thank you so much for featuring our Letter N Vehicle activities! We’ve been enjoying going through the alphabet, one vehicle at at time! You can find links to all the vehicles up to letter N at http://theresjustonemommy.com/2014/01/06/m-is-for-monster-truck/
I love all of your fun transportation activities. Thanks for sharing that link with me — it’s a great resource to have! 🙂
Thank you for featuring our DIY Puzzle in a Box activity!
Of course! What a great idea for creating your own puzzle, and I loved the transportation theme of it. Thanks for linking up!
This is a great round-up, MC! I found several new posts to add to my Little Aviator’s pinterest board! 🙂 Thanks for including our airplane play post!
Yay! Glad you liked it! 🙂 Your airplane plane and party posts are a must read (especially for those little girl aviators). So much fun, and I know I’ll be using some of your ideas for my next transportation theme in preschool.
I’m a little late in commenting, but we just had a construction Zone Breakfast with my son and it was a big hit! Maybe make it a construction zone snack for preschoolers 🙂
Ooooh, I like that idea Clarissa! Thank you! 🙂
