  2. Why is it important to ask an adult before climbing high?
  3. Can you share the special rhyme that helps us stay safe?

Hello, Friends!

Hi there! I’m Mother Goose, and I’m so happy to see all your bright, smiling faces today!

Meet Brother Goose

Guess what? My friend Brother Goose is here too! He wants to help us have fun with some nursery rhymes. He even brought his guitar to make it extra special!

Humpty Dumpty’s Lesson

Let’s talk about Humpty Dumpty. He sat on a wall and had a big fall! Oh no! All the king’s horses and all the king’s men couldn’t put Humpty together again. Poor Humpty should have been more careful. It’s important to remember not to climb high walls without an adult to watch you. That’s a good rule to keep us safe!

Brother Goose’s Safety Rhyme

Brother Goose has a special rhyme about being careful. Let’s learn it together:

Be Careful Rhyme

“Get permission before you go to play, so you can be found right away. Look both ways before you cross the street, then when it’s clear, just move your feet. But only cross the street when you have permission.”

Isn’t that a great rhyme? It helps us remember to be safe while having fun!

Share with Friends

We can feel good about ourselves when we know how to be careful. Let’s remember this rhyme and share it with our friends!

Say Hello to Sister Goose

Oh, look! Sister Goose is here too! She and Brother Goose have been teaching us how to stay safe with nursery rhymes. It’s so nice to have them here with us!

Thanks for joining us today, and remember to always be careful while having fun!

  • What do you think Humpty Dumpty could have done differently to stay safe on the wall? Can you think of a time when you had to be careful while playing?
  • Brother Goose’s rhyme talks about getting permission before playing and looking both ways before crossing the street. Why do you think these rules are important? Can you share a time when you followed a safety rule?
  • If you were to create your own safety rhyme, what would it be about? Can you make up a short rhyme to help you remember an important safety rule?
  1. Safety Scavenger Hunt: Go on a safety scavenger hunt around your home or classroom! Look for things that help keep you safe, like a seatbelt in a car, a helmet for biking, or a crosswalk sign. Draw a picture of each item you find and share it with your friends. Can you think of any other safety items you use every day?

  2. Create Your Own Safety Rhyme: Just like Brother Goose, try making up your own safety rhyme! Think about a place where you need to be careful, like the playground or the kitchen. Use words that rhyme to remind you and your friends how to stay safe. Share your rhyme with the class and see if they can come up with actions to go along with it!

  3. Role-Playing Safety Situations: With a friend or family member, act out different situations where you need to be careful. For example, pretend to cross the street and practice looking both ways. Or, pretend you’re climbing a ladder and talk about why it’s important to have an adult nearby. What other situations can you think of where you need to be extra careful?

Here’s a sanitized version of the provided YouTube transcript:

[Music]

Hello everyone! I am Mother Goose. It’s good to see your bright, smiling faces!

Brother Goose, I was just about to enjoy some of my favorite nursery rhymes with these boys and girls.

Hey, Mother Goose! May I stick around and help you jazz up the nursery rhymes a little? Maybe even use a guitar?

Of course you may! We will have lots of fun!

[Music]

Had a great fall! All the king’s horses and all the king’s men couldn’t put Humpty together again.

[Music]

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty should have been more careful. He shouldn’t have been climbing up on high walls without an adult there to watch him in the first place. That’s important for these boys and girls to remember.

You know, Mother Goose, the other day I wrote a rhyme about ways to be careful.

We need to be careful when we have fun. Remember these rhymes and tell everyone:

“Get permission before you go to play, so you can be found right away. Look both ways before you cross the street, then when it’s clear, just move your feet. But only cross the street when you have permission.”

We need to be careful when we have fun. Remember these rhymes!

[Music]

That is a terrific rhyme to remember! You can feel good about yourself because you know how to be careful. I want to remember that rhyme and teach it to my friends.

Well, hello Sister Goose! It’s nice to see you!

Brother Goose and I have been teaching our new friends some nursery rhymes about being safe.
