Here's a few ideas for Transport -

-making and looking at tyre prints by moving cars, trikes etc across paint and paper
-make a pretend bus or aeroplane with rows of chairs and let the children's imagination run wild
-go for a walk to a safe viewing area and watch and note different transport passing by if appropriate
-create a transport dance - lie on back and cycle legs/stretch arms and fly/spin like a helicopter/pump arms like a steam train...
-talk about a rocket journey, what might you see/find, what kit do you need, what does your rocket look like... turn into roleplay? Read "Whatever next?" as it's a similar theme
-make a road with chalk lines or equipment and get the children to ride their trikes around, stopping at red lights/waiting at junctions/going around roundabouts/let pedestrians across road (links nicely into road safety talk)...
-hide toy cars etc in sand tray or around the setting for a treasure hunt
