Song: “Twinkle, Twinkle, Traffic Light”
Twinkle, twinkle, traffic light,
Shining on the corner bright.
Red means stop, green means go,
Yellow means go but take it slow.
Twinkle, twinkle, traffic light,
Shining on the corner bright.
Rhyme: “Traffic Light”
Green says, “Go” (march in place quickly)
Go! Go! Go!
Yellow says, “Slow!” (march slowly)
Slow…slow….slow…
And red says “stop!” (stop suddenly)
Go! Go! Go! (move fast)
Slow…slow….slow… (move slowly)
and STOP! (stop)
(Repeat and allow children to pretend they are cars driving down the street.)

Rhyme: “This Is Big”
This is big, big, big. (stretch hands far to sides)
This is small, small, small. (cup hands together)
This is short, short, short. (hold palms close vertically)
This is tall, tall, tall. (hold palms far apart vertically)
This is fast, fast, fast. (roll hands quickly)
This is slow, slow, slow. (roll hands slowly)
This is yes, yes, yes. (nod head)
This is no, no, no. (shake head)
