Instructions

1. Cut out pictures of cars from magazines or newspaper classified sections.
2. Glue the pictures onto index cards.
3. Cover the cards with clear contact paper or laminate them.
4. Place the cards in a shoebox.
5. At Circle Time, ask each child to draw one out. Take turns asking each child,
"Where are you going in your car?" The child will then hold up her picture
and tell the class where she is going in her "car."
6. Most children will describe familiar locations. Encourage them to dream up
fantasy places as well.
More to do
Cut out pictures of other forms of transportation such as a bus, train, truck, horse,
and so on. Ask the children to describe where they might be going if they were
driving one of these.
