Page 2: Object / Shape Matching and Fine Motor
On this page, the child will be able to see how shapes are used in context and can actually hold and feel the shapes (flat 2D) as opposed to just looking at them in printed books.
A circle in a hot air balloon, triangle for a boat, a square and a rectangle that makes a truck - match shapes and learn to button and unbutton!

Further, talk about shapes. The Square has four sides. Can you show me the four sides? How many corners does the Triangle have? And so on.
Page 3: Sorting - Air, Land and Water vehicles
Aside from sorting, that is having the child sort the transportation modes into groups under the appropriate category - Water transportation, Air transportation and Land transportation- this page works on answering "where" questions with the help of visual support.
"Where does the boat go" The boat goes on .....water .
"Where does the airplane go" And so on.
Page 4: Counting Carriages
Build the train, identify numbers, sequence the carriages and even play the memory game!
For younger children, while working with the numbers , you may start with a choice of two numbers to limit the visual field while adding the next number.
Page 5: What's inside the Garage?
It could be a Dump Truck, or a Mixer... even an Oil Tanker!
