If you are looking for a fun and hands-on extension activity to ‘We All Go Traveling By’, you have come to right place! My kids also love the sing-along version by Barefoot Books, which you can find here.
This activity is great for improving your young learner’s speaking and sequencing skills, while also developing their fine-motor and visual discriminations skills.
