Guest Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 Hi everyone I want to make a birthday train for nursery with each carriage a month of the year. just wondered if anyone has a template i can copy. feeling really lazy with lots of christmas things to get done as well
Guest Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 I'm also wanting to do a birthday train. So it will be great for any templates
Guest Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 I dont know whether this will help but when we did ours we got 12 sheets of different coloured paper (size depending on number of people in each carriage i have done A4 and A3) we then did printing activities on each piece, we used potatoes and sponges. For the wheels of the train i cut out circles of different colours of paper and the children decorated these. I made labels on the computer. For the childrens pictures they painted a picture of themselves and we talked about when their birthday was and put them in the correct carriage. I have also seen photographs of the children used instead of drawings or paintings. Hope this helps Debs
Guest Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 hi there for my birthday train all i did was use different coloured card for the carriages laminated them (in the sape obviously) then i just put a photo of each child with their name and birthday date on a separate label.. works wel.. then when its the childs birthday i put their pic at the front of the train so they are the driver!
AnonyMouse_4544 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Nice idea we made a 3D train with washinh tablet boxes was a nightmare as children kept changing the order of the carriages
AnonyMouse_2846 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 weve used old cd's for our wheeels which looks effective
AnonyMouse_1027 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 ive just changed our birthday train for fish, 12 pieces of a4 card with 12 different bight fish stuck on them , then the pics of each child under thier birthday month..it looks fab.

Guest Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 Has anyone got any pictures of a birthday train or any birthday display they have done that they could share it would be lovely to see them
Guest Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 Hi there I used birthday ballons and have the childrens pictures with their birth date stuck on the appropriate month. I teach F2.
