The Wheels On The Bus: Favourite Nursery Rhymes

My great grandson didn’t enjoy riding in the car much until I got this for him. I have seen a video of him singing along to it and he doesn’t mind going in the car now because he’s happy singing all the different songs.A great buy:)

10 years ago, I would listen to this with my then 3 yo daughter … now I am an auntie, I’ve purchased it for my 18 month old niece! I love all the songs they’re all catchy and I haven’t got bored of them yet!

At the same time I purchased this I also purchased wheels on the bus go around the world. I rate this one higher than the other. Florence enjoyed the wheels on the bus version much more, she liked the fact she could hear the bus at the end too. She's very into hearing things lately and often says, "hear plane" or birds. Lots of nice sounds lead the sounds in or out and that's a nice touch. Row row row your boat is abit slow going but nice enough. Sung as a round. Miss polly had a dolly is a favourite and Florence liked this one as she can sing along in her own words. It's also sung twice which is nice when she shouts "again" We liked the whistling teapot at the start of polly, it's a nice touch although Florence thought it was a nee nar car (police car) lol. We enjoyed five currant buns too, nice and slow so you feel confident joining in. Also the gap is large enough for you and your child to count left over finger in-between verses. Love the little penny dropping sounds too. Peter hammers with one hammer has become daddy taps with one hammer but Florence enjoys it. Like the tapping sound effect too on this one. Nice drumming at the start of the grand old duke. Nice it's sung by a male voice, really suits the track. Overall this is a far better cd than the wheels on the bus around the world. Would happily purchase this again. Florence seems t prefer this one out of the two. It's more straightforward without all the extras that don't add anything to the track. I hear thunder is also nice at the beginning. Can see this being handy for anyones child who is afraid of storms.

Very good one. The voice is very clear. Good for children.

The Wheels on the Bus There are several CD's with very similar titles, and I had great difficulty finding the correct product link to insert in this review! The CD I am reviewing is called ''The Wheels on the Bus' - 26 Favourite Pre-School Songs' by Michelle Durler and Robin Fritz [AudioGO]. The cover has a red bus in the foreground and a red and white ship in the background. IT IS NOT 'Wheels on the Bus' (BBC Audio Children's) (Audio CD) as the link says, NOR is it 'The Wheels on the Bus Go Round the World') [EDIT 19/04/2014: On glancing back at this purchase, I see that the link has been corrected, and the picture now relates to the product.] The songs are sung clearly, in a traditional way - not all 'jazzed up', and are easy to listen to and sing along to. For ease of listening there are index points at regular intervals on this recording. The songs are: The Wheels on the Bus Down at the Station Row, Row, Row Your Boat The Big Ship Sails on the Alley Alley Oh London Bridge is Falling Down Jack and Jill Hickory Dickory Dock I'm a Little Teapot Miss Polly Had a Dolly Polly Put the Kettle On Pop Goes the Weasel Five Currant Buns Ten Fat Sausages Peter Hammers With One Hammer The Grand Old Duke of York Boys and Girls Come Out to Play I Jump Out of Bed Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush Ring a Ring O' Roses I Hear Thunder, I Hear Thunder Incy Wincy Spider Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes If You're Happy and You Know It Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star Wee Willie Winkie Ten in a Bed I can recommend this CD to people looking for a traditional, old-fashioned' collection of nursery rhymes.

Very good songs i got 2, cant stop playing this as an adult!

My son loves this. My 12mo hated being in the car and would cry for the entire journey, so we got this as one of his birthday presents hoping it might help. It does! Draw back is I have to sing along to keep him going and I was a little sketchy on some of the lyrics - apparently Hickory Dickory Dock, has a flying pig and a man in brown?! Which sounds a little dodgy. Also how many hands does Peter have to hammer with 5 hammers, no wonder he gets tired; if anyone knows him give me a shout, just moved house and need a good joiner. Finally Incy Wincy Spider- "incy" and "wincy" are not nouns, this is not the spiders name, these are adjectives describing the spider, maybe consider revising this song in the next edition. But this is a great play list for the little ones, and recommend you give it a go, although minor warning, you'll be singing the songs all day when the kids aren't around too.

While we have four CDs for the kids to listen to in the car - the one they both want to hear is this. They particularly like the "crazy songs" that speed up as they go along or ones that have funny pops or bangs in. The problem is after repeated listening some of them have wormed their way into my subconscious and I find I am humming them during the day!

Very good song collection...espcially for kids from UK ....good singing and no loud music....my sons fav when we go in car

I wanted to give this cd as a birthday gift and it arrived on time to my delight. It is perfect. Thank you.

たくさん歌が入っていてお得感がありますが、いまひとつ！歌詞も無く使い物にならない！歌詞が無いことを知っていたら買わなかった！

As soon as I put the disc in and the music starts, the kids stop what they're doing and listen to the catchy tunes. Not bad at all. Thank you. The "How old was the person..." boxes below, only allows one box to be ticked off. So for your information, I got this disc for 6 kids, ages 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8 yrs old.

L'ho regalato a mio nipote di quattro anni e mezzo che frequenta un corso di Inglese e gli piace moltissimo. È vero che in internet si trovano i video, però i testi non sono sempre identici e questo può creare qualche difficoltà per chi come me non vorrebbe tradurre al bambino la canzone. Le canzoni sono tante e il rapporto qualità prezzo è ottimo
