Reverse this for the UK, Australia, Japan, etc

I get you should look left immediately before stepping into the street as that’s where a car will be. But why twice?

    The first time because the cars will be coming from the left. The second time to make sure you didn’t misjudge the first time.

    If you live in a country where the traffic directions reverse, you can teach the kid the opposite thing.

    This is just a simple rule of thumb. Obviously, you don’t want anything to run into you in any directions, which is a real danger in a busy intersection.
