Types of transport is a fascinating and interesting topic for almost any little person. By introducing children to this topic, you can classify all vehicles and talk about the purpose of each of them. The task of parents and teaching staff is not only to familiarize themselves with various types of vehicles, but also to consolidate the acquired information through games.
Why do preschoolers need information about transport?
The full development of children can be achieved only by introducing them to the world around them. A child will always be interested in the question of what types of vehicles are there and why do people need them? It is not by chance that preschoolers are introduced to the classification of vehicles. This helps to enrich the vocabulary and consolidate the generic concept of “transport”. At the same time, they achieve the presence of other points:
- The preschooler will learn to compare different types of transport and find some common or distinctive features in them.
- If there is reason, he can unite individual representatives into a single group and somehow classify them.
- You can teach a preschooler the rules of behavior that involve being in one or another type of vehicle.
All this will contribute to the development of personal qualities in the preschooler. This will contribute to the development of thinking, responsibility, and criticality.
Vehicle classification
The division is based on different principles. This could be a method of transportation or a destination. Depending on the method of transportation, vehicles are divided as follows:
- Ground type, in which the vehicle moves only on the ground or rails. An example would be a locomotive or an entire passenger (freight) train or bus.
- Water transport In this case, movement is carried out by water.
- Aviation mode of transport. Representatives of this category travel by air.
By purpose, transport is divided as follows:
- Passenger view. As the name suggests, it is designed to carry passengers.
- Horse-drawn look. Its main purpose is to transport goods. An example is a barge or an ordinary cart.
- Special transport. It is intended to perform any specific tasks. A striking example of this type is a fire truck.
- Agricultural type of vehicle. These are various tractors and combines designed to cultivate land for agricultural purposes.

76. Jeep
One summer, in a field of rye, Bear found an excellent jeep. The car is simply a miracle - A hundred times stronger than a camel. The bear exclaimed: “Get to work! Now I will overtake the eagle, the hare, and the fox. Who would doubt this! I’m in a car, like this, I can go into the forest differently. What a wretched forest there is! I'll go to the pampas. If I want, I can take a jeep to Antarctica. I’ll say: “Hello, penguins! I brought you oranges." Such a car is not afraid of potholes, holes, boulders. Will go anywhere My friend is made of steel. I will start driving around on it and discovering continents. And it will be, I won’t hide it, that the whole world will be proud of me!” While the bear was dreaming with all his might, the Jeep trembled and purred, and, as if for fun, he drove away from the bear.

77. Brought an escalator underground for the first time
I brought an escalator underground for the first time. I didn't care about transportation plans. It seemed like the shells were dozing on the marble. And power wafted from the stone walls! It’s like I’m in some kind of magical grotto, At the bottom of the ocean in one of the worlds... Forgotten for a time, worries and worries. I'm in a fairy tale whose name is METRO!

78. Trains rumble through the city
Trains are rumbling through the city - rattling iron pythons, their mouths are about to open, and then the hungry carriages will swallow us. Heavy, deafened trains are pulsating through the city's nerves... We've all already arrived. We sleep while the road joints crunch. And only a restless night owl will wake up and hear how the city’s broken spine hurts. The city has arthritis.

The sun is shining in the blue sky and the clouds are walking. And under the sky there is a tall forest and a wide river.
Suddenly a plane flies across the sky as a black dot. Flies high and fast. The pilot is flying the plane.
He flies and leaves a white tail behind him. I'll call a plane, I'll invite you to my home.
But the airplane does not hear, it continues its flight. I wave to him: “Goodbye, plane!”

A boat is sailing on the water, but there is no captain. And the waves are not visible on the river, so what is the secret here? Suddenly the wind suddenly blew, the ship turned over in an instant. He could no longer swim further, he was completely wet from the water. There is no secret here, and the captain, the boy Vova, stands in tears on the shore. Well, how can I help him?

84. It's getting warmer. Let's run
It's warmer. Fast streams ran everywhere. The birds whistled a song: “Whose are we? Whose are we? Whose-whose-whose...” I’ll make a boat out of a piece of paper, A stream will pick it up and spin it around the bridge. Only My little boat will bravely break out onto the wave And rush further to the sea, To an unknown country.

85. There far in the distance
There, far in the distance, a boat was sailing on the river, Sails overhead and seven feet under karma. The captain looks into the chimney, blowing smoke into his mustache, a seagull soars in the air, touching the mast. The boatswain checks the course, going around all the shallows, And the sailors are scrubbing the boats on the way to the goal. Whose sailboat is sailing? What's its name? We launched the ship at home with dad in the bath.

86. The wind blows, the waves splash
— The wind is blowing, the waves are splashing, “Agile” is flying through the waves. This little boat was made by the boy Pavlik, sitting on his porch from a birch plank, and sent floating across a puddle in the yard at dawn. The worm, an old, experienced sailor, became the captain. The cabin boy is a little bug, a novice in maritime affairs. There is an ant at the helm, You couldn't find him braver, He rules due east. In place of the sails there is a leaf. The ship floats on the waves, The wind of wanderings calls into the distance!

I boarded the cramped bus with my grandmother. I sat down comfortably. Everyone knows - This is a place for children.

64. Mom bought me an ambulance
I constantly need help: Sometimes I get offended, sometimes I get lost, sometimes I scratch my hand and cry, sometimes a ball rolls into the far corner. Either I get caught on a prickly twig, or a spider scares me. Sometimes you can’t sleep all night if there’s a mouse rustling somewhere. Mom bought me an ambulance. - If you cry and moan again, If you get caught on a twig again, Or a spider attacks you, If you lose your candy again, Tell the Good Doctor about it. The ambulance will rush to you - And will not leave Andryushka in trouble.

The truck chugs in the garden: Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo. I'm bringing you apples, Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo. In the field the truck hums, It protects the grain from the rain. And he collects potatoes and delivers them to stores. The truck is at work everywhere. Carrying the cargo is his concern. Rides at night, rides during the day, rides with the sun, in the rain. You, baby, will understand later: You can’t live without work.

Round-sided and important, She is filled with water!

Without a wheel for four days I have had my car. Her whole body is dented, And the headlights are no longer on, The glass is broken to pieces, The left wing is bent...

I completely agree with them and I promise my dad: “Buy me another car, I won’t break another one.”

Assignments for mastering the material
When introducing preschoolers to various types of vehicles, various games are used to help them remember them better. They can be represented by the following options:
- Puzzles. They contribute to the development of logic, thinking, and intelligence.
- Outdoor games. Each child is given a picture depicting some type of transport. There is a house where the corresponding transport base is located. The child’s task is to correctly identify it in relation to the type of vehicle depicted in the picture he received.
- Puzzles. This is, for example, a picture of an airplane cut into pieces. The child finds a picture with the required part and talks about what it is intended for.
The information about transport received by a preschooler will contribute to his further development.
