Polar Express Preschool Activities
One fun activity is to have a “ticket” for each child to board the Polar Express. You can create these tickets using cardstock and a hole punch for added authenticity. As the children board the train, they can hand in their tickets and take their seats for a magical journey.
Another great activity is to have a hot chocolate station where kids can make their own hot cocoa with marshmallows and whipped cream. This sensory experience will delight their taste buds and create a cozy atmosphere reminiscent of the Polar Express movie.
You can also set up a craft station where children can make their own jingle bell necklaces or create their own train conductor hats. These hands-on activities will spark creativity and imagination in your students as they immerse themselves in the world of the Polar Express.
By incorporating these Polar Express-themed activities into your preschool curriculum, you can create lasting memories for your students and make learning fun during the holiday season. All aboard the Polar Express for an unforgettable adventure!
