Usage
- Have the children sit down.
- Pick up some object (an inflatable plastic club or hammer is ideal) with which to menace the children. Start the track.
- Slowly move to hit someone but upon hearing the word "Don't" stop and look sheepish/guilty.
- Keep threatening the children but fail to hit anyone. React to the soundtrack and especially to anyone who says, "Don't!"
Follow-Up
Threaten the children and see if any of them will say, "Don't!" Try hitting yourself and see if anyone will say "Don't!"
Play Don't Move!
Notes:
This is a very important concept for children to understand and respect.
