This is a baby signing rhyme of the familiar folktale. The play with opposites makes this a fun rhyme and it is chock full of baby sign. Follow these links to learn Baby Sign for turtle, rabbit, fast, slow, and sleep. I used a flannel pattern I found on Mel's Desk for a visual aid.
The tortoise went slow.
The hare went fast.
The tortoise kept going.
The hare took a nap.
Although tortoise went slow
And hare went fast,
The tortoise came first,
And the hare came last!
Use in either a baby storytime or a preschool storytime.
