Our boys love anything that has to do with rescue
heroes, so this lapbook was a HUGE hit in our
house as we studied about firemen!
All of the printables that you will need to make
this lapbook are listed here on this page. I've also
included some pictures, additional links, and
resources for you to use along with the lapbook.
Pictures of our Fireman Lapbook
Print off as many {or as
few} of the printables as
you would like ~ it's
your lapbook. Just have
fun with your little one
and enjoy the process
together!
Quick tip
Print off lapbook pieces on cardstock, especially if you are working with younger preschoolers. The pieces will be more sturdy and last if you are planning to pull it out and use it again. Of course, laminating is always an added bonus!

Very proud of the finished product!
|
Our lapbook is simply a file folder {no fancy
folding} and we used a glue stick to piece it all
together.
Front cover: The 16 piece fire engine puzzle
was pieced together and then glued to the
cover.
Back cover: The shadow matching game is
glued to the back cover.
Inside: Along the top we glued the pattern
strips. Underneath we added the color booklet,
some clip art and the pocket that holds the
pieces for the pattern strip.
The bottom of the inside holds the word card
pocket, the name spelling pieces, and the
counting cards.
Ready to make your own?
Your preschooler will have fun learning and
practicing basic skills such as identifying color
names, creating simple patterns, counting
from 1-10 {with 1:1 correspondence}, putting
together simple puzzles ~ all while putting
together a lapbook on a favorite topic for
many young children ~ Firemen!
