Montessori Resources for Land, Air, and Water Transportation Activities

If you have a vehicle lover, you’ll find that vehicles are some of the best tools you can use to teach a wide variety of concepts. They’re great hands-on learning objects for kids who aren’t obsessed with vehicles, too. Land, air, and water sorting is one of the early Montessori geography activities for preschoolers. Land, air, and water transportation sorting is typically one of the most popular land, air, and water activities you’ll prepare.

It’s best to start with two introductory Montessori land, air, and water activities before transportation sorting. You’ll find those two lessons in the free geography album by Karen Tyler of KHT Montessori.

If you sign up for my weekly newsletter, you’ll receive the free geography album (and lots of other great freebies)! Starting on page 47 of the album, you’ll find thorough directions for introducing land, air, and water in two separate lessons. Right after those two lessons is a presentation for land, air, and water transportation sorting.
