Transport Vocabulary: Car, Bus, Train

Transport Song: “Let’s Go”

Verse 1:
Cars zoom by, buses stop,
Trains on tracks, engines pop.
Bicycles roll, scooters glide,
Transportation far and wide.

Chorus:
Let’s go, let’s ride,
Travel near, travel wide.
Cars, buses, trains, and more,
Transportation, let’s explore!

Verse 2:
Planes up high, boats on sea,
Walking paths, just you and me.
Helicopters, motorcycles too,
So many ways to move, it’s true.

Chorus:
Let’s go, let’s ride,
Travel near, travel wide.
Cars, buses, trains, and more,
Transportation, let’s explore!
