Tovább folytatódik a Noodlebug DVD-k dalszövegeit bemutató sorozat! Ez a lemez olyan dalokat, verseket, történeteket tartalmaz, amely közlekedéssel, járművekkel és mozgással kapcsolatos (pl. csúszdázás, ugrálás stb.).

1. The Wheels on the Bus

Let’s get moving on our big yellow bus…

The wheels on the bus go round and round
Round and round, round and round
The wheels on the bus go round and round
All through the town.

The people on the bus bounce up and down …
The wipers on the bus go wash, wash, wash…

Lehet további versszakokkal bővíteni:

The doors on the bus go open and shut… [Karokat nyitni-zárni. Zárásál taps.]
The driver on the bus says, “Move on back.”… [Hátrafelé mutatni]
The horn on the bus goes beep, beep, beep… [A gyermek orrát vagy pocakját finoman megnyomkodni]
The engine on the bus goes brrrm, brrrm, brrrm…
The windows on the bus go up and down… [fel-lehúzást imitálni]
The children on the bus play peek-a-boo … [kezekkel arcot eltakarni, kukucskálni]
The babies on the bus cry waah, waah, waah … [szemet dörzsölni, mint sírásnál]
The mommies on the bus go, shh, shh, shh [száj elé a mutatóujj]
The daddies on the bus go read, read, read… [olvasást imitálni]
The mommies on the bus say, “I love you.” [gyermeket megölelni vagy ölelést imitálni]

Számtalan változat létezik még, a versszakok végződhetnek így is: “All day long. (Ez inkább a brit változatokra jellemző.)”
Ha van kedvetek filccel is eljátszani, el lehet készíteni hozzá a szereplőket (lásd kép fent) – mi most beleszerettünk a filcbe.

2. Slide! (Patricia McNamee Hansen)

Up the ladder
to the top -
OH… it’s high-
But I won’t stop.

Slide!

Sit right down.
I’ll push off soon.
Hey, there’s a boy
with a red balloon.

Slide!

Sure I’ll go.
In just a minute
See the wagon and
the big dog in it?

Slide!

Almost ready -
I’m not afraid
Look, some kids
selling lemonade!

Slide!

Now I’m set.
It’s not so steep.
Close my eyes
and breathe in deep…

One, two, three…
And a big heave-ho
And whoosh and swoosh
And down I go!

3. We Skip and We Skip and We Stop!

We skip and we skip and we stop!
We skip and we skip and we stop!
We skip and we skip and we skip and we skip and we skip and we skip and we skip!

Saltamos, saltamos, paramos
Saltamos, saltamos, paramos
Saltamos, saltamos, saltamos, saltamos, saltamos, saltamos, paramos.

We hop and we hop and we stop!
We hop and we hop and we stop!
We hop and we hop and we hop and we hop and we hop and we hop and we stop!

Brincamos, brincamos, paramos
Brincamos, brincamos, paramos
Brincamos, brincamos, brincamos, brincamos, brincamos, brincamos, paramos.

We shake and we shake and we stop!
We shake and we shake and we stop!
We shake and we shake and we shake and we shake and we shake and we shake and we stop!

Nos movemos, movemos, paramos
Nos movemos, movemos, paramos
Nos movemos, movemos, movemos, movemos, movemos, movemos, paramos.

4. Traffic Ten!

It’s time to count to traffic ten!

One aardvark checks a roadway plan
Delivering goods in an aardvark van!

Two hyenas are speedy pacers
Zooming in their hyena-racers!

Three bears visit Uncle Gus
Tooting the horn of their big bear-bus!

Four tucans make a grab
For the driver’s seat in their tucan-cab!

Five frogs leap and croak and squeal
Bouncing in their frog-mobile!

Six lean lions with a tambourine
Sing in their lion-limousine!

Seven tigers have to duck
Under a bridge in their tiger-truck!

Eight jaguars on a mountain steep
Revving up in their jaguar-jeep!

Nine crocodiles, each with a guitar
Plucking tunes in their croco-car!

Ten wolves polish up the dragon
Painted on their pink wolf-wagon!

5. Down by the station

Down by the station
Early in the morning
See the little puffer-bellies
All in a row

See the station master
Give the starting signal
Puff, puff, toot, toot
Off they go!

Down by the airport
Early in the morning
See the little airplanes
All in a row

See the air controller
Give the starting signal
Wroom, wroom, zoom, zoom
Off they go!

6. The Merry-Go-Round

On a merry-go-round
We go up, we go down
And around and around and around.

The music keeps playing
An oom-pah-pah song
I wish I could ride on it all the day long.

Ez egy nagyon aranyos dal az egyik Noodlebug dvd-ről, az On the Move-ról. Eszter ma este magyar mesét választott, Bartos Erika egyik könyvét az Anna és Peti sorozatból. A vidámparkos részben van egy körhinta. Megemlítettem neki angolul a szót, és egyből kérte, hogy énekeljük el a Merry-Go-Round dalt. Nagyon édes volt.

Itt a szövege:

On a merry-go-round
We go up, we go down
And around and around and around
The music keeps playing
An uhm-bah-pah song
I wish I could ride on it
All the day long
On a merry-go, merry-go-round.
