Train Tracing Floor Activity

Ideas or Inquiries

We all love trains, and they’re a great way to help your little discover shapes! With just a few simple supplies, your child will “chug-chug” along through the magical world of triangles, quadrangles, and maybe even a dodecagon!

Supplies:

blue painters tape used for train tracing activity for kids
  • Toy trains
  • Masking or Painters Tape

Directions:

On your floor, use the tape to make simple shapes, such as:

  • Triangle
  • Square/rectangle (a quadrilateral)
  • Dodecagon if you’re up for the challenge (that’s 12 sides!)

Your child will then use their toy trains and follow the “tracks” made by the tape.
