I have several planned activities for this train set. I plan to let the kids play with the train cars as a choice time activity initially. I'm hoping kids will recognize letters that they know, look for the letters in their names, or the letters in their peers names. I also hope some will try to put the train in order from A to Z. During small group time I will allow the kids to use the little toys and try to use their phonics skills to figure out which letter goes where. I also want to use the little toys to change out the toys I have in the Lakeshore Learning Alphabet Mystery Box. This is a favorite game in my class, but it becomes too easy after awhile with the same items. It doesn't look like there are too many repeats between the 2 items which is awesome. So I am excited to have more little toys to change it up!
I plan to use the Alphabet Train with the Lillabo train tracks from Ikea which are a great buy at $9.99. Now that I am moving and will have my own garage to work on projects and
a place to spray paint my issue is how do I fix my train table. I have had a Brio Train Table sitting in my storage unit for almost 2
years now just waiting for me to fix it up!
It needs the plastic trim replaced, but other than that it is in amazing condition considering I paid
$5 for it. It's all cracked and has rough edges so it must go! It can't be that hard, but honestly I don't even know how
to begin. Have you ever replaced the plastic trimming on wood or
particle board furniture before??? Any ideas???
