I am always collecting ideas to use in my preschool classroom. It was exciting to see so many activities related to a preschool transportation theme at last week’s Share It Saturday. 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. 🙂

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! 🙂
