Fun Facts about the Wheels on the Bus Song
Across the globe, children grow up singing simple songs that are taught to every new generation but whose origins are a mystery. Where do we get these childhood ditties and why were they written? For instance, anyone who's ridden on a bus no doubt has sang (or thought of)"The Wheels on the Bus." While it's not concretely proven who was the person who wrote the song, Verna Hills of Boston, Massachusetts, is often credited as the possible creator, as her name is associated with the song's first published appearance in volume 25 of "American Childhood" (1939). As the author of the song is not known for certain, the author's intent cannot be discovered. The most widely-held belief is that, like most folks songs of its kind, it was written to keep children entertained as they rode the bus. Many children's nursery rhymes and songs have subversive hidden meanings, but there's not an obvious one for "The Wheels on the Bus." It was likely inspired by the repetitive actions of a bus' features that are ever-present while riding it.
