  Numeral Race Car Track    Cars and trains are little boys' best friends! I am fascinated with these colourful miniature trains and cars as it promote not only imagination but also open up countless creative avenues for play-based learning. So this week we had a little fun creating our Number Race Tracks. Here's how you get your number track printed.   Print out the numbers onto A4 size sheets or card stocks.   I created my number tracks using "WordArt"(Ariel Black) as a Word Document and got them printed. Use a Silver Sharpie to create your track lines.  (Have your tracks laminated for durability, and also you can cut out the numerals if desired) To start with, I inserted the number sheets into display pockets and used glue-tact to just keep the sheet in place. Hopefully, you can have your kids take their cars for a test drive on their Number Track! Yeah, my son had fun taking all his cars and buses for a test drive, but
