There is something about kids and trains. There is a fascination with the trains, tracks, the engineer and the passengers. It really captures their imagination and their enthusiasm brings out the kid in all of us. If you are looking for train activities, I’ve got you covered!

There are so many things you can teach with trains. The alphabet, as you mentioned, counting, geography (where the trains go), math (how many cars on this train if two were left at this stop), later science… Choo choo!
Hi Sybil.

These are some great ideas! Sharing them with others.
My nephew loves trains, these are great!
Love the train car sandwiches!
Trains always have had a interest for kids I think. My son had a little wooden train set and he really enjoyed playing with it. We also too him out to Train Mountain pretty often to ride on the miniature train and we also went on several antique steam train rides.
Good things with trains!
Thank you for the chance.
Oh my God I love the visuals!
Some really creative ideas. Love your website!!
The Shark Melon sounds great!
Every child should have a wooden train set!
I love this article especially because it focuses on boys activities. I raised my daughter and now she has a son, my grandson. I was not sure what activities he would enjoy. This gave me some marvelous suggestions and inspirations!
