Transportation Bingo Game

The printable includes  four different game boards and a set of car cards.  To play bingo, give each child a game board.  Shuffle the cards and place face down on a pile.  Turn over a card and kids can cover the matching vehicle on their game board.  The first child to cover 4 vehicles in a row on their game board is the winner.

Do your kids love cars? Use this free printable for several transportation activities in your preschool or pre-k classroom. The car printable can be used for a matching game, a bingo game, and even a travel game.

I made a set of light blue lines along the diagonals on the game cards.  My son always had a difficult time seeing the diagonal while playing bingo games.  The addition of the line makes it a little easier for young kids.

Transportation Matching Activity

The car printable can be used for a matching game, a bingo game, and even a travel game. It's a perfect addition to your transportation theme or things that go theme, or wheels theme unit and lesson plans. Kids will love the hands-on learning activities.

You can also use the set as a simple transportation activity.  Use the bingo game boards and 1 set of vehicle cards for each game board.  Kids can select a vehicle card, find the matching card on their game board, and place the card upside-down on their game board.  They can continue until they have matched all of the vehicles on their game board.  This is a great visual discrimination exercise.

Watch the Cars Go By

Print off a bingo game card and place it on an inexpensive cookie sheet and use some magnets as markers.  Kids can watch cars drive by from a window or from a playground and mark each type of car as they see them.  This also works as a fun and inexpensive travel game for a road trip.  It doesn’t take long for kids to see which vehicles are easy to spot and which ones are more difficult.
