Markers and cars

This was such a cute idea from Pinterest! My kiddos had such 

fun with markers taped to the back of vehicles.They each

 picked out two vehicles and two colors of markers. 

I taped the markers onto their cars, trucks and trains and 

they excitedly got busy driving their cars across

the paper. Be sure to take the lids off the markers before you

 tape them to the cars. Even little Lucy was thrilled with her 

rainbow road. Kaylee was sure to let her friends know

 there would be no speeding!  Such a simple activity with 

little preparation that the kids had such a great time with! 

Supplies needed

assorted vehicles

washable markers

masking tape

paper

Salt art

There is nothing more exciting when your a teacher than 

getting a bag of donations! Especially art donations!

In my bag of goodies I found  nice sturdy vehicle

 shapes. My kiddos had lots of fun decorating them with glue 

and colored salt.  Salt is cheap and easy to color. 

Just pour it in a bowl, add some Wilton color paste, stir and 

let it dry. I  color my salt the day ahead. The dollar store

 has these small  metal cake pans. They make a great work station

 for messy art projects. I covered  the vehicles with white school

 glue and the kids used their Q-tips to spread glue all over 

their vehicle shapes. Then they got busy picking their

 favorite colors of salt for their favorite vehicle. 

We had a rainbow assortment of cars, planes, trains and boats.
