Unlike any other bus, this one has activities on board such as painting, dressing up, outside games, sand and water play - in fact, whatever you like to do.

Puppets galore!

You don't even have to ask the driver for a ticket - it's free!

The theme of the playbus this year is "puppets galore".

You can make a puppet, help to decorate the puppet theatre or put on your own puppet show.

Throughout August, the Bristol Playbus will be visiting a total of 25 different parks and spaces bringing a wide variety of child-centred and exciting play opportunities to children across the city.

The bus also has a serious and important role.

It visits children who don't get the opportunity to play games or mix with others of their own age.

Next stop
