Red, Yellow, and Green

Author: Фоменцова Вера Анатольевна
An original rhyming fairy tale for disobedient children ages 4-6 about animals and, separately, about a fox, designed to teach and reinforce traffic safety rules.

Doctor Pillulkin lives under a tree.
She treats all the forest folk day and night.
If someone burns a finger — iodine appears right away,
If someone hurts a paw — our doctor gets the bandage.
Our doctor treats all the animals; she has so much to do.
Our doctor doesn't leave anyone without attention!
And the doctor warns everyone:
"Follow traffic safety rules.
Road rules are needed everywhere.
So you don't get into trouble,
You must follow road rules, little animals!"

And the doctor treated and taught,
Warned all the little animal children:
"You must follow traffic safety rules!
We all need to know the traffic light signals!
Red light — no crossing!
Yellow — get ready!
And green — go ahead, hold your mother's hand!"

Everyone loved the doctor, Doctor Pillulkin
And always followed traffic safety rules everywhere.
But one day trouble struck,
Mother Fox lost her little one.
Mother cried loudly and called —
The mischievous little one was nowhere to be found.
And the little fox ran away from his mother
And played happily by the big road.

"How fast the cars run down the road,
I'm having so much fun here!
I ran away from my mother fox,
And I came to the big road,
I'm not afraid of anything in the world,
I'll even cross the road all by myself."

And the little fox ran off without looking back…
And in that spot stood an important general
He blinked his multicoloured eyes,
And seeing the little fox, he cried out:
"Oh, what a scandal there will be now
He ran on my red light!"
The traffic light waved his arms
And blinked even more brightly:
Red, yellow, and green!
All the cars lined up in a row
And the silly little fox
Was no longer happy with the game.

They stepped on his paw, it hurt the little one so much
The traffic light scooped him up and hurried to the tree.
Doctor Pillulkin doesn't waste time
Quickly gets the bandage, gets the iodine.
She treats, treats the little one
What can you do, it's a disaster!

Then our traffic light blinked and spoke to everyone:
"I watch over road safety day and night,
I send my signals to pedestrians and drivers
If I blink red, it means — stop! No crossing!
If yellow, then get ready, the right light will come soon.
When green lights up —
You can go ahead safely!
I have three bright eyes and watch them!"

The little fox understood everything, bowed his head low
And hurried back to his mother fox:
"Oh, I won't run away anymore
And I won't play by the road anymore!"

Mother wanted to scold the little one,
But only stroked his head lovingly…
"Thank you, Traffic Light" —
The little animals cried out
And formed a circle
And started clapping together.
