 Songs and Rhymes About
​Transportation

songs and rhymes about transportation
Here  is a collection of the words for some songs and rhymes that coordinate with the  popular early childhood themes "Transportation",  and can be used when planning activities and curriculum for young children.

Transportation theme activity printables
Take a bus or take a train,
Take a boat or take a plane,
Take a taxi, take a car,
Maybe near or maybe far,
Take a rocket to the moon,
But be sure to come back soon.
 
 
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Bumping up and down in my little red wagon
Let's ride off together!
 
 
One wheel, two wheels on the ground.
My feet make the pedals go round and round.
The handlebars help me to steer so straight,
Down the sidewalk and through the gate.


I am a big airplane,
With wings so wide and strong.
My tail stands straight up in the air,
And my body's very long.(Stand on one foot, stretching one leg behind, extended in air.)
Watch me when I'm flying,
For I go very fast.
Let's see who can stay up in the air,
And who runs out of gas! ( remain balanced on one foot.)
 
 
Sung to: "Clementine"
I'm an airplane, I'm an airplane
Flying up into the sky.
Flying higher, flying higher
As I watch the clouds go by.
I'm an airplane, I'm an airplane
See me flying all around.
Flying lower, flying lower,
Till I land down on the ground.
 
 
I'm an airplane,
(children raise arms at sides to shoulders.)
Now watch me fly! 
Here are my instruments
From down low to up high.
(reach from the ground to above heads.)
First I get revved up.
(make engine noises)
Then I can fly,
(raise arms to shoulders)
Lifting off the runway
(start walking forward.)
Up into the sky!

 
 
Down by the station early in the morning,
See the little train cars all in a row.
Listen to the engineer pull the big whistle.
Toot-toot, toot-toot! Off we go!
 

Little red caboose, little red caboose,
Little red caboose behind the train, train, train, train,
Smokestack on its back, going down the track,
Little red caboose behind the train.
WOO! WOO!
 

Tune: Bingo
Look at my bright shiny car
I'm driving it today-o.
C - A - R (BEEP! BEEP!)
C - A - R (BEEP! BEEP!)
 C - A - R (BEEP! BEEP!) I'm driving it today - o!
More verses:
We put on our seat belts, put the key in the ignition, got gas etc.

 
The red at the top
Tells us to STOP! 
(palm facing out.)
The green below
Tells us to GO!
(Sweep arm out as traffic cop would)
The yellow in the middle
Tells us to WAIT!
(Extend both arms out.)
Please don't worry-
You won't be late!
  


Hurry, hurry, drive the fire truck
(Hands on steering wheel)
Hurry, hurry, drive the fire truck
Hurry, hurry, drive the fire truck
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!
(Ring bell)

Hurry, hurry, turn the corner
(Lean to the right)
Hurry, hurry, turn the corner
(Lean to the left)
Hurry, hurry, turn the corner
(Lean to the right and left)
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!
(Ring bell)
 
 
 (Tune of Wheels on the Bus)
The wheels on the train go clackety clack
Clackety clack, clackety clack
The wheels on the train, go clackety clack
All along the track.

More verses:
 The whistle... goes whoo, whoo, whoo
The conductor... says, "All Aboard"
The people ... go bumpety, bump


Train is a-coming, oh yeah.
Train is a-coming, oh yeah.
Train is a-coming, train is a-coming,
Train is a-coming, oh yeah.

Better get your ticket, oh yeah.
Better get your ticket, oh yeah.
Better get your ticket, better get your ticket,
Better get your ticket, oh yeah.


I'm a windshield wiper
(bend arm at elbow and hold fingers up)
This is how I go
(swing arm back and forth)
Back and forth, back and forth
In the rain and snow.


 Over hill, over dale
They will ride along the trail
Through the mud and through the rain
Big trucks will come and go again.
