Need: Paper,
yarn, straws
Directions: Precut
circular and rectangular shapes from construction paper. Have the
children glue the precut shapes on to a piece of construction paper to
resemble a fire truck. They may add yarn or string for the fire hose and
use straws to make a ladder.
Fire Painting

Need: Marker,
paint, paper, plastic wrap
Directions:
Using colors associated with fire (red, orange) squirt or draw thick lines
on the paper and add a few drops of black paint here and there. Press
clear plastic wrap onto the paper and squeegee the paint around. Pull
plastic off of the paper using a strong vertical pulling action. (This
will cause the paint to look like fire.) When paint is dry have the
children glue a black cutout of a house (windows cut out) and/or a black
cutout of a fire truck.
Flame Paints with Marbles

Need: Yellow
and red tempera paint in small cups or bowls; marbles; box lid and manila
paper
Directions:
Let children lay a piece of manila paper in the box lid. Spoon out one to
three small blobs of pint on the paper and place one or more marbles in
the lid. By tilting the lid slightly the marbles will roll around
through the paint and make "flame" designs. Add more spoonfuls
of paint if desired to increase the color blending.

Need: paper,
glue, scissors
Directions: I give red long rectangles
and circles for wheels. I do give 4.. put 2 on each side.
I also give them a larger circle and demonstrate how to make a spiral...
cutting round and round and round to make a hose. If time permits I
would give them scraps of paper to make a ladder. I like kids to be
creative so I just demonstrate and let them go.
