1 Here to There Children love to move from here to there. This week we explore different ways of moving for people, animals, things, our bodies and our imaginations through stories, play, music and games. We look at different modes of travel, including cars, trucks, buses, boats, trains, aeroplanes, hot air balloons, rockets, helicopters, bicycles, horses, sub-marines and walking. Friends are visited, holidays are planned and taken, deliveries are made and we do lots of moving from here to there!
