Playground Romp: A Rhyme to Sign

At the playground,
always so much fun.
Watching all the kids
on the run.
Twisty slide, twisty slide,
climbing to the top.
Slide all the way down
with a great bit plop.
On the see-saw,
going back and forth.
We go so fast
we get dizzy of course.
Flying on the swing set,
we go so high!
We say hello
to all the birds in the sky!
