F is for Fire Trucks!



We read Flashing Fire Engines and played with "Eddie" the Fire truck



Making a flame painting by blowing the paint through a straw


Coloring things that begin with the letter "F"


Firetruck addition book on Enchantedlearning.com (sorry it's upside down!)


Cooper also practiced telling me his phone number and address and how to dial "9-1-1" in case of an emergency.

This is a cute Barney video which includes the song "Hurry, Hurry, Drive the Firetruck":
