The main activities can be completed offline and on different days.
Step 2: Introduction to the activity and additional information
This activity provides the opportunity to discuss vehicles and their uses.
Start by watching and joining in the story/song ‘We All Go Traveling By’ written by Sheena Roberts on the link below:
- How many different vehicles from the story?
- What colour was the bus/train/truck etc?
- How many people were on the bus, in the truck etc?

- Make a list of or draw the vehicles in the story.
Activity 2 – Optional
- If you have a selection of toy vehicles or pictures can you sort them into land/sea/air vehicles?
- Can you think of other ways you could sort your vehicles? E.g. colour, size etc. ?
Activity 3
- Can you remember your journey to school or the route you took on a daily walk?
- Draw a map of your route to school or daily walk.
