We discuss frame bundles and canonical forms for geometries modeled on homogeneous spaces. Our aim is to introduce a geometric picture based on the non-holonomic jet bundles and principal prolongations as introduced in [Kolář, 71]. The paper has a partly expository character and we focus on very general aspects only. In the final section, various links to known results on the parabolic geometries are given briefly and some directions for further investigations are roughly indicated.
