Jackie & Maeve Painting with Trucks! Painting with trucks is a classic art activity for kids to watch colors blend and see the tracks left by different tires. It’s a great way to paint without brushes, and it requires very little prep. It sparks imagination and helps to develop both fine and gross motor skills!

Trucking through the Summer A-Z Storytime: Mr. Jason reads Big Trucks in the Middle of the Street by Mark Lee
One ice-cream truck selling everything sweet breaks down and blocks the middle of our street.
If you’re a little boy on a bike, an ice-cream truck on your street is always a welcome sight. But what if the truck breaks down and blocks the mail truck behind it (now there are two), not to mention a third truck carrying hay? One by one, trucks of all types and sizes and functions are sure to pile up behind, offering ample opportunity for ogling — and counting. And maybe the boy’s idea for putting one of the trucks to good use might even save the day!

Trucking through the Summer A-Z Storytime: Ms. Lisa reads Truck Stop by Anne Rockwell.
Early each morning,
before the sun is even up,
the Truck Stop opens for breakfast,
and the trucks start pulling in.
Eighteen wheeler,
milk tank,
moving van,
and flatbed!
Their drivers order eggs and bacon,
pancakes with syrup,
and a blueberry muffin.
For the boy who helps his parents at the counter, there is nothing better than seeing all the trucks roll in; he knows every single one . . . and can tell when one is missing!
