Inside: Download these free The Wheels on the Bus printable song sticks to use during your circle time!
The Wheels on the Bus is one of our favorite songs to sing during circle time.
In fact, if we are having a challenging day (and sometimes that happens!), I will start singing this song and it resets the mood.
We also love this song because of the familiar motions – the horn, the wheels, the baby, the door ….
I decided to create this The Wheels on the Bus printable to use as song sticks during circle time or music and movement.
Scroll down towards bottom of this page find the free download!

What you will need:

We suggest either printing these on heavy paper or laminating them for extra durability, unless you are the only one that will handle them. If you are using these for virtual learning, no need to laminate and you could use regular paper.

After downloading the printable, make copies.
Then, cut around the circles to separate.
Simply tape a popsicle stick to each piece and they are ready to go!
Now you are ready to sing The Wheels on the Bus using these song sticks!
Choose which graphics you will need depending on the version you will be singing.
Some ideas:
The wipers on the bus go swish, swish, swish
The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep
The doors on the bus go open and shut
The driver on the bus says “Move on back”
The people on the bus go “shhh, shhh, shhh”
The baby on the bus goes “wah, wah, wah”
The mommy on the bus goes “I love you”
The money on the bus goes clink, clink, clink
The daddies on the bus go read, read, read
We use this version when using recorded music:

If you want to make bus props for each of your children to hold:
I’ve been asked if I could add a page with just the bus, for those that want to have bus props for each child to hold. (This is what I showed in my YouTube video.) If you would prefer this version, you can grab it here. You can then make extra copies of that page so that each of your students has a bus to hold while you sing the song.

This prop packet is also included in our most popular collection of circle time props!
