In Magic School Bus, Ms. Frizzle's backstory, and how she created the bus, lizard, and students
Ms. Frizzle was born inside a normal house with a normal mother and father. As what one would normally expect, the parents provided her with proper food and shelter. However, one day, Ms. Frizzle's mother consumed a very dangerous drug. She started to go crazy, and while high, bought an extremely dangerous potion. Still under the effects of the drug, the mother put the extremely dangerous potion into her daughter's dinner. Unknowingly to Ms. Frizzle, she ate the dinner like a normal girl would do.
During the next week, Ms. Frizzle felt as if she was not acting normally and that her hands suddenly had a powerful ability to create steel, a key component of school buses. This is a very similar ability to how Elsa had the ability to create ice and snow. Eventually, Ms. Frizzle's parents noticed how dangerous and naughty she was, and they officially decided to disown her. With Ms. Frizzle creating lots of steel, it eventually formed the School Bus.
With her new witch-like abilities, Ms. Frizzle cast the school bus under her spell, turning it into the MAGIC School Bus. Additionally, she also cast her own clothes and earrings under the spell too, explaining why they sometimes glisten randomly. Ms. Frizzle also could use her power to emerge to her class from very unusual places, such as fishing her out, erupting out of a volcano, and poking out of a beehive (see in Goes Upstream, Blows Its Top, and In a Beehive, respectively).
The new magic school bus could obviously turn into anything. Inside the bus though, the buttons seem to be different every time too, which can be seen throughout the episodes and/or show. Thus, by simply SAYING or WISHING for what buttons Ms. Frizzle the witch wants in the bus, the buttons automatically appear. Over time, Ms. Frizzle wished for a lizard and some kids she could be with to stay company with. Eventually, there were buttons which when pressed on, would a lizard (Liz) and students appear.
Afterwards, Liz and all the students came from Ms. Frizzle's magic, except Phoebe, of course, who came to Ms. Frizzle from her old school. Noting how weird Ms. Frizzle behaved with an ordinary normal school teacher, Phoebe compared Ms. Frizzle with her old school, leading her to say the catchphrase "At my old school. ".

In the spring, it became an airplane, soaring through the clouds and granting children the opportunity to explore the world. Spark took them on virtual tours of famous landmarks, introducing them to diverse cultures and broadening their horizons. Every day, Spark fulfilled its duty as a magical educational vehicle lizard, leaving a trail of knowledge and inspiration wherever it went.
