The video “Let’s be a Policeman, Fireman and Ambulance Driver” from Little World – Kids Songs & Nursery Rhymes is a delightful animated nursery rhyme that follows Baby John and his friends as they team up on a fun classroom project: building their own emergency vehicles out of cardboard. Through catchy songs and playful role-playing, little ones learn about policemen, firefighters, and ambulance drivers while discovering the magic of working together.
What Happens in This Fun Adventure?
In the story, Baby John pairs up with his classmate Mia to create a bright red fire truck, while other friends build a police car and an ambulance. Their teacher guides them to follow steps carefully and help one another. As they finish their creations, the children pretend to drive around town in their vehicles, flashing lights and sounding sirens—just like real heroes!
The song repeats a cheerful teamwork chorus:
“The more we work together, together, together The more we work together, the easier it’ll be Helping each other, working together The more we work together, the better we’ll be”
Then come the special verses for each hero:
- Policemen in the car — riding around to “keep us safe ‘n’ sound”
- Here comes the ambulance — with flashing lights and loud sirens to help quickly
- Firefighters in the truck — zooming to put out fires and save the day
Kids see the vehicles “come alive” as the characters hop in and act out their important jobs, making the lesson feel exciting and real.
Why This Video Helps Children Learn English
This colorful animation is perfect for young English learners because it uses:
- Simple, repetitive words and phrases (police car, ambulance, firefighter, sirens, flashing lights, put out fires)
- Action verbs kids can easily act out (go around, help, work together, build)
- Short sentences that build listening and speaking confidence
- A positive message about cooperation that feels natural in conversation
Watching and singing along helps toddlers and preschoolers pick up new vocabulary related to community helpers while practicing rhythm and pronunciation through the “Hi ho the merry oh” refrain.
Perfect for Parents and Teachers
Play this video during circle time, role-play activities, or when teaching about jobs that help people. Encourage children to draw their own emergency vehicle or pretend to be a firefighter calling out “Here comes the ambulance!” The repetition makes it easy to memorize, and the teamwork theme sparks great discussions about helping friends.

Song Lyrics:
The more we work together together together
The more we work together, the easier it’ll be
Helping each other, working together
The more we work together, the better we’ll be
Policemen in the car, policemen in the car.
Hi ho the merry oh policemen in the car.
They go around the town,
To keep us safe ‘n’ sound,
Hi ho the merry oh, policemen in the car.
The more we work together together together
The more we work together, the faster it’ll be
Helping each other, making it stronger
The more we work together, the better it’ll be
Here comes the ambulance, here comes the ambulance.
Hi ho the merry oh Here comes the ambulance.
Our lights are flashing on,
the sirens going loud,
Hi ho the merry oh…here comes the ambulance.
Firefighters in the truck, Firefighters in the truck.
Hi ho the merry oh Firefighters in the truck.
We go around the town,
Putting the fires out,
Hi ho the merry oh…Firefighters in the truck.
