As a lifeguard

votes

Hello all! I'm working as a lifeguard now, at a pool where most of the swimmers speak Spanish predominantly. I was just wondering: how would it be best to say, "Walk! You could trip and fall!" to a child that's running? Usually I say, "No corras!" but I want to help them by telling them what they could do instead.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

TOTALLY OFF TOPIC, but an easily understood Spanish song for beginners.
Camina, no corras.

Since we can't attach pictures at the moment, here is a link to a sign saying "Tenga cuidado. Camine, no corra."
