Welcome to the Kindergarten Bus Adventure!

Hello, friends! Today is a special day because it’s the first day of kindergarten! Are you excited? Guess what? It’s my first day as a bus driver too! Hop on the bus, and let’s meet my friend Paulie the parrot. Can you say hello to Paulie?

Meet the Bus Captain!

All the kids on the bus are new, just like you! I’m the captain of this bus, and I have some important rules to share. Ready to hear them?

Bus Rules:
  • Stay in your seat.
  • No yelling.
  • Keep your hands to yourself.
  • Always listen carefully.

Is everyone ready for kindergarten? Let’s go!

Feeling a Little Scared?

Some of you might be missing your family or your favorite toys. It’s okay to feel that way. Even I miss my parrot Paulie sometimes!

But remember, we’re all brave and strong! Let’s hold on tight because we’re on our way to kindergarten. The road might be bumpy, so hang on!

Being Brave Together

Oh no, there’s a big bump coming! But don’t worry, we’re all in this together. Did you know that being brave means doing things even when you’re a little scared? Everyone feels scared sometimes, and that’s okay!

Let’s sing a happy song as we head to kindergarten. You’ll learn so many fun things like reading, writing, playing games, and making new friends. Recess will be a blast!

Arriving at Kindergarten

We made it! Time to get off the bus safely. Remember, even pirates can drive a school bus, but they might get seasick on a real ship!

If you love stories, ask your grown-up to find more fun books that come to life. There are so many adventures waiting for you!

Thanks for joining our bus ride today. Have a wonderful time at kindergarten!

  • What are some things you do to feel brave when you’re scared, just like the kids on the bus? Can you think of a time when you felt brave?
  • Imagine you are the bus captain for a day. What new rule would you add to make the bus ride more fun and safe for everyone?
  • Paulie the parrot is a special friend on the bus. Do you have a special toy or friend that makes you feel better when you’re nervous or scared? How do they help you feel better?
  1. Role-Playing Adventure: Gather your friends or family and create a pretend bus ride at home. Use chairs to make a bus and take turns being the bus driver and passengers. Practice the bus rules: staying in your seat, using quiet voices, and keeping hands to yourself. Discuss why these rules are important for safety and fun.

  2. Bravery Badge Craft: Create a “Bravery Badge” to celebrate being brave on your first day of kindergarten. Use paper, crayons, and stickers to design your badge. Think about a time when you felt scared but did something brave anyway. Share your story with a friend or family member and wear your badge proudly!

  3. Observation Walk: Go on a short walk with a grown-up and look for things that remind you of the bus ride to kindergarten. Can you find something that looks like a bus or a parrot like Paulie? Talk about how these things make you feel and what you are excited to learn at school. Take pictures or draw what you see to share with your class.

Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

[Music]

Welcome aboard, kids! It’s the first day of kindergarten! Don’t worry, it’s my first day as a bus driver too. Climb aboard! This is Paulie, my parrot. Say hello, Paulie!

[Music]

All these little ones back there are new, but I’m the captain of this vessel, and I run a tight ship!

[Music]

So here are the rules: no getting out of your seats, no yelling, keep your hands to yourself, and always listen. Is everyone back there ready for kindergarten?

I miss my dad.
I miss my dog.
I miss my teddy.
I miss my mom.
I miss my blanket.
I’m scared.

[Music]

Quiet down, everyone! There’s no crying on my bus. We’re brave and tough, and we don’t miss anyone either!

[Music]

Now hold on tight! We’re off to kindergarten! We have a bumpy road ahead, so hang on!

[Music]

Here comes a big bump!

[Applause]

Don’t look out the window! Come back, Bobby! I can’t drive the bus without my sweet, snuggly Paulie. I can’t do it!

[Music]

But you can!

I’d be scared without my Paulie.

But you said pirates don’t get scared!

Yeah, and you said pirates don’t miss their mommies or doggies either.

I was just pretending to be brave so you would be brave too. But I’m just a scared pirate!

[Music]

Well, my mom says being brave means doing what you have to do even when you’re scared.

Yeah, that’s what my dad says too.

So it’s okay to be scared?

Yeah, everybody gets scared!

Alright, let’s get you little ones to kindergarten! Now sing along!

[Music]

You’ll be learning to read and write, playing games, and making new friends. You’ll be running around during recess!

[Music]

I knew you wouldn’t leave me, Paulie! Now, all of you, exit the bus safely.

If you’re really a pirate, why are you driving a school bus?

Because I get seasick!
