Have a monster truck loving kiddo? Then this coloring printable is for you! Unleash your creativity and create your own unique monster truck!
We are no strangers to such a theme, but ironically I was at a lost for what to read and do... UNTIL my son decided to pick out some new monster truck books from the library. There wasn't a specific book that we focused on this month; we just ended up reading all of the chosen monster truck books that my son found at the library and the ones we had at home. Monster trucks are a kind of automobile, right?!

Just to highlight my son's monster truck love---
- My son loves playing with his monster trucks by creating his own ramps with cardboard.
- We own about a gazillion of them!
- His 5th birthday cake was monster truck themed.
- We've had some fun smashing the number line, which was inspired by monster trucks.
- He has been to several Monster Jam shows....
So, for this months Planes, Trains, & Automobiles Poppins Book Nook theme, we set out to unleash my son's creativity by letting him design his own monster truck! And he's made a lot of them! We have quite a collection now-- seriously, he's been a monster truck coloring machine!

As you can see this turned into a family affair! Little Sis created her own Monster Truck, with the help of Big Brother. And, I had some fun creating one, too. Man.... I have a "thing" for polka-dots don't I?!
No monster truck is complete without a name! Big Brother named one of his first designs, Black Thunder. Little Sis's monster truck was named Rainbow Smash, and mine was Polka Dot Piranha! It was a great activity for all of us to do together!
Next month's theme is Folktales! See you at the end of May for another edition of the Poppins Book Nook!
