"How Do You Get from Here to There?" is a Sesame Street song about three common ways of transportation: walking, taking a bus, and flying a plane. The song was first performed on the show in Episode 0242 by Tom.
The song, using the same music, was then turned into an insert piece by Anything Muppets (voiced by Jim Henson, Marilyn Sokol, and Jerry Nelson). (First: Episode 0374) It was also covered by Bob in Episode 0470.
The song was rerecorded for the album What Time Is It on Sesame Street?, with Jerry Nelson, Fran Brill, and Richard Hunt as the Anything Muppets.
The Sesame Street Live show Around the World features the cast performing the song before they start their worldwide trip.
Another version of the song was sung by Big Bird on the StoryMagic audio tape for Big Bird's Day on the Farm. This version was later featured on Sing-Along Travel Songs, with bridging dialogue by Zoe and added sound effects.
