Stop, Go, Switch
A winding road with traffic lights and change-hands signs: go, slow down, stop and count, swap hands.
One long road winding down the page, with signs along it. A finger follows the road from the start and does what each sign says: at a green light go on, at a yellow light slow right down, at a red light stop and count to three, and at the swap sign carry on with the other hand. Every swap sign shows the hand to carry on with. Stopping when the finger wants to keep going, and changing hands without losing the place, is the challenge; it is good fun with a grown-up calling the counting. Harder levels have a longer road, more signs and more swaps. Use a finger for a road anywhere, or a pencil to draw along it.
