Song: We're Sparks
We run into a circle,
We make a great big ring,
We all join hands together
And then we start to sing:
We’re Sparks, Sparks, Sparks.
(Girls own names spoken)
We’re Sparks, Sparks, Sparks.

Song: Buddies and Pals
You and me, we’re gonna be partners;
You and me, we’re gonna be pals,
You and me, we’re gonna be partners:
Buddies and pals!
Buddies and pals! (optional repeat)
You and me, we started off strangers,
You and me, we came from afar,
You and me, we started off strangers:
Now we are friends –
Buddies and pals!
- origin unknown
Song: Let's Be Friends
Let’s be friends and share a song.
Let’s be friends and dance along.
Hold my hand we’ll skip and play.
Let’s put sparkle in our day.

This is an action song. Have the girls do the following movements as they sing it:
- Form a double circle of couples: the inside circle stands with backs to centre, facing their partners.
- Each girl shakes her partner's left hand.
- Taking their partner's two hands, the girls slide-step around the circle.
- The girls drop hands and bow to their partner.
- The outside circle moves clockwise to the next partner and repeats the dance.
Song: Sparks Can Jump
Sparks can jump on two feet
And sometimes hop on one;
Sparks can be together
and have lots of fun.
Sparks can clap with two hands
And sometimes snap with one;
Sparks can jump together
And have lots of fun!
Sparks can stretch up two arms
And reach out with one;
Sparks can clap together
And have lots of fun!
Sparks can wiggle two hips
And wiggle only one;
Sparks join hands with partners
And have lots of fun!
- words and music by Robert J. Crocker
