Ideas for Later
You could make a box bus and on the side paint or draw faces of the passengers. Or you could draw a train on a long piece of paper, and add the wheels to all the carriages, and then people at the windows, or anything else you think the train may need.
There are many ways to travel from place to place. You could find in some old magazines, pictures of different sorts of transport, e.g. bicycles, strollers, trains, ferries, planes, cars, buses etc… and paste the pictures in a scrap book.
If you see and hear another band like the Umbrellas, you could see if you know the names of the different instruments that are played, and pretend making the sounds.
