Get your kids moving and doing with this classical Wheels on the Bus Gross motor!

They look like they’re having so much fun! I love that you were able to add a gross motor activity to extend the story! (I think I’m going to have to look for this title at the library!)
Who doesn’t love Pete the Cat! Looks like they had a great time!
I loved the pictures of all three girls together. They certainly had a lot of fun with this book!
My children still love the Wheels on the Bus song and my husband even belts it out in different verses for things too. Thank you for participating in the Poppins Book Nook every month and for linking up this week to the Thoughtful Spot Weekly Blog Hop 🙂
You know, I didn’t even think of doing the song. I’m slowly going through the posts for this month, and I’m seeing all these ideas I didn’t even think of.
That is what makes the book club fun! We do have ideas we don’t think of!
