ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Bus spotting

Bus spotting is a fun activity that involves observing and keeping track of different types of buses that you see on the roads. Just like how you might collect different types of toys, some people like to collect pictures, information or lists of different buses that they have seen.

Imagine you are going on a long drive with your family and you see different types of buses on the way. You might see a bus that looks like a big yellow school bus, another bus that has pictures of animals on it or one that is super fancy with big windows and comfy seats.

When you go bus spotting, you look out for different types of buses and try to remember or write down their details so you can keep track of all the different types you have seen. You can take pictures, draw pictures or write down the name of the bus and where you saw it.

Bus spotting is a fun way to learn about different types of buses, their features and what they are used for. You might even discover new types of buses that you have never seen before.

So next time you go on a drive or a trip, keep your eyes peeled for buses and see how many different types you can spot!
