Do you know which colors mean stop, slow, and go? On a real traffic light, green means go, yellow means slow, and red means stop. Play along with the blinking of this light by clapping for green, clapping slowly for yellow, and stopping for red. You can also make the traffic light blink yourself and play with a friend.

It is hard for children to develop control over their bodies. Playing games about "stop and go" help them practice control, so that they may be more likely to have self-control and be able to stop in other situations.
