How to try it

Gather two or three toddlers and their grown-ups in a circle. Hold hands or each hold a scarf, walk round in one direction while singing Ring Around the Rosie, and stop when you reach the end of the song.

Materials

  • Open floor space

Safety note

Clear the floor, keep the circle slow, and let any toddler step out whenever they want.
