Learn about transportation and how different vehicles move with this fun Transportation Preschool Circle Time Song and the supporting activities. Try the free resource or get the full transportation song pack for even more fun and learning.
When kids are able to move around, they learn new concepts better. During transportation theme activities kids can learn about common transportation forms and the way they move or the sounds they make with a simple song.
This free printable song is part of our preschool circle time song series. Throughout the series, I’m introducing 24 engaging songs that are just right for toddlers and preschoolers. Each song is adapted from a popular tune so kids can easily join in and sing along.
For each song, you may choose to grab the free printable version that includes the song text and song pieces in color, or you may purchase the full song pack which includes additional supporting activities to extend the fun and learning as well as the black and white version of the song text and song pieces.
