Hey hey hey!
This week’s video is of a song that always seems to please. Whether your child is 9 months old or up to five years old, children love singing and moving along to The Wheels On The Bus.
You’ll notice this video is about, oh, six minutes long. !!! Over the years as I’ve done this song at parties and in performances, it seems to have gotten longer and longer. Why is that? Well, aside from the usual things that are on the bus — the wheels, the horn, the doors, etc. — I’ve added some unusual guests to get the older kids up and moving such as, soldiers. And kangaroos. And spaghetti. (Yep, spaghetti.) We even have a dance party on the bus!
If your child is not old enough to march or jump by themselves you can still engage with them: have them sit on your lap while you march your feet so they can feel the rhythm and get a fun a ride; for the jumping kangaroos, hold them under their arms and bounce them up and down on their feed, making a jumping motion for them.
I hope you all enjoy the video, as well as the “dancing Nina” in the upper right hand corner showing all of the motions.
As always, I’d love to hear from you if you’d like to leave a comment below. I’ll even take requests for upcoming videos!!
Wishing you all a great week and I hope to see you soon!
Fun!! 🙂
