    A colorful printable school bus craft template featuring cut-and-paste activities, including wheels and windows, designed for preschool transportation crafts and back to school projects.

    My daughter likes to trace and write the word on her cut and paste worksheets before coloring or cutting out the pieces. It's easiest for little learners to write on the page while it's still intact.

    Coloring the bus is easiest before cutting out the pieces.

    Next, cut out the pieces.

    Glue the pieces together to make a school bus. There are three windows, a windshield, a door, and two wheels.
