Air Transportation Movies for Kids

I love to incorporate movies and videos into our unit studies whenever possible. They’re a great way to entertain your little ones on sick days or rainy days.

Here are a few ideas for kids:

Books About Air Transportation

In addition to movies, I love to include a wide variety of books in my lessons. I use some for read-alouds and save others for independent reading (when appropriate).

Below, I’m sharing a few of my favorite nonfiction books about the air transportation. I find they’re perfect for introducing the modes of air transportation, increasing vocabulary, and illustrating important information.

Preschoolers love hands-on activities and crafts. Those types of activities help little ones engage with the topic you’re teaching.

When studying air transportation, you can add one or more of these activities to your lesson plans:
