Assign one or more of the following parts to a third family member: Bus Driver, Boat Captain. 4. Take turns acting out proper and improper safety behaviors. Here are some possible scenarios to get you started: • Timon wants to cross the street at a red light–he is about to cross without looking both ways, and he is not at a crosswalk. Pumbaa explains why it is important for Timon to pay attention to his surroundings before crossing the street, why Timon should only cross the street when he has a green light and has looked both ways, and why Timon should only cross the street at a crosswalk. • Timon and Pumbaa are on a bus, and Timon decides to start dancing and singing in the aisles. The Bus Driver is having a hard time focusing on the road, because Timon is so distracting. Pumbaa has to remind Timon to take a seat and stop distracting the driver so they can all arrive safely at their destination. • Timon and Pumbaa are about to board a boat. But before the Boat Captain will let the two friends board, Timon must put on the proper safety equipment. Timon thinks he needs a helmet, but Pumbaa reminds Timon that he needs a life jacket whenever he is traveling on the water. 5. Feel free to have all of your family members take turns playing the various roles and/or including other roles, such as crossing guards, flight attendants, train conductors, or passengers. 6. Finally, have the children reflect on what they have learned from the activity. Here are some questions you might want to ask: • Why is it important to practice the four Safety Smart® points of safe travel? • How can you help your friends and family members remember how to stay safe while traveling?

Follow these points that we mention – You’re Safety Smart®…And that’s a fact! • Award your children with their very own Safety Smart® Certificate. Encourage them to hang it up so everyone can see that they are always Safety Smart® On the Go! (pg. 17) If you want to focus on amusement park rides and attractions safety… • Watch the 2-minute Amusement Park Rides and Attractions interstitial. Then ask your children what they learned about amusement park rides and attractions safety. • Invite one child to hold a completed Timon puppet, and invite a second child (or parent) to hold a completed Pumbaa puppet (see instructions on the Puppet Safety Theater worksheets, found on pages 15, 16). • Have the children role-play that they are standing in line for a ride at an amusement park. While in line, they should act out reading all of the posted signs, and listening for safety announcements (ask any other children or adults to shout out announcements). Once they are seated on the ride, they should act out using the proper safety equipment (e.g., fastening seat belts), and keeping their arms and hands inside of the ride at all times. • If the children need help remembering the travel safety behaviors for amusement park rides and attractions, encourage the other children (or adults) to help them recall the lessons they learned in the video. If you want to focus on bicycle safety… • Watch the 2-minute Bicycles interstitial. Then ask children what they learned about bicycle safety. • Show children the Safety Equipment Check worksheet (found on page 18).

Then have the children come up with a few travel safety reminders that Pumbaa is about to share with Timon (e.g., “Remember to slow down,” “Don’t distract yourself,”“Make sure to look both ways before crossing the street,” etc.). • Now that Timon is wearing his proper bicycle safety equipment, point to the two pictures at the top of the worksheet and see if children can explain how the proper safety equipment is being used in each picture.

On A Motorcycle Answer Key The passenger needs a helmet and the driver and passenger need closed-toe shoes. The driver could become distracted if the passenger is pointing or waving. It is also good for the driver to slow down when carrying passengers. The driver needs shoes and should not be barefoot. He should also take fewer passengers. Too many passengers can distract the driver. It is also good for the driver to remember to slow down when carrying an extra load. All of the passengers should be wearing closed-toe shoes and securely fastened helmets. Carrying too many passengers could distract the driver. The driver and the passengers should pay attention to their surroundings, especially because other drivers might be carrying oversized loads. It is also good for the driver to remember to slow down when carrying passengers. Photos courtesy of Nancy Casolaro © Disney 24
