Learning road signs & building site games for children

Things can sometimes get quite hectic on the roads and at building sites … Especially in the mornings on the way to nursery or school, there’s a lot of traffic on the roads. That’s why it’s particularly important that even our little ones follow the road rules – so that dangerous situations don’t even arise in the first place. Here at Limmaland, we’ve come up with another idea: today we’re showing you how your children can learn about road signs in a fun way . And even little builders will have a great time with our craft template.

Learn road signs through play with the Limmaland print-out

Road rules are important – which is why even our youngest children should be introduced as early as possible to the meaning of the different signs . And it doesn’t have to be boring at all! After all, the best way to learn is through play. That’s why today we’re showing you how you can teach your children about road signs using very simple methods. Safety first!

Verkehrsschilder lernen Material

Here’s what you’ll need for the craft project:

  • the Limmaland craft template
  • a sheet of sturdy paper
  • scissors
  • glue
  • a few toothpicks or kebab skewers
  • a few bottle corks
  • craft knife

Step 1: Print out the template and cut out the signsStart

by downloading our ready-made craft template. It’s best to print the signs on slightly sturdier paper, so that they don’t get damaged whilst playing. Now get your scissors out and cut out the road signs.


Step 2: Cut the bottle corks to size

Next up are the bottle corks. These will later hold our signs in place. This is where the sharp craft knife comes into play – so it’s best if Mum or Dad takes care of this step. We’ve cut each cork into 3 slices. That way, the size is just right! Please note: if you’re using shish kebab skewers for your craft project, you can also cut these into 3 pieces each using the craft knife. This will give you pieces roughly the size of a toothpick.

Step 3: Sticking the signs onto the toothpicks 

Get the glue ready, ready, go! Now stick the cut-out road signs onto the toothpicks in pairs. Make sure you use the same sign on both sides. And, of course, they should be stuck on the right way round – after all, we want to learn the correct road signs.

Step 4: Stick the toothpicks into the corks 

Now you’re almost done. To finish off, simply pop the toothpicks with the signs into the cork discs – and there you have it: a brilliant DIY project that combines fun with learning!
