Song: Goin' On a Lion Hunt

(Leader sings a line, everyone repeats. During each verse, everyone slaps their hands on their knees in a rhythm as if they were marching.)

Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not afraid!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Tall, tall grass ahead!
Can't go over it!
Can't go under it!
Can't go around it!
Gotta go through it!

(everyone does actions as if parting long grass)

Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not afraid!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Icky, sticky, mud ahead!
Can't go over it!
Can't go under it!
Can't go around it!
Gotta go through it!

(actions as if you were trying to slog through mud)

Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not afriad!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Deep, wide, river ahead!
Can't go over it!
Can't go under it!
Can't go around it!
Guess we gotta swim it!

(actions as if swimming)

Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not afraid!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Tall, tall trees ahead!
Can't go over them!
Can't go under them!
Can't go around them!
Guess we gotta climb them!

(actions as if climing up one side of a tree and down the other)

Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not afraid!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Deep, dark cave ahead!
Can't go over it!
Can't go under it!
Can't go around it!
Gotta go through it!

(next verse is done very, very quietly, as if you were scared of the cave)

Goin' on a lion hunt...
I'm not afraid...
Look at all the beautiful flowers...
Oh-oh...
I see two shining eyes...
I feel something furry...
I feel a big, c-c-cold nose...
I feel sh-sh-sharp teeth...
It's a LION! RUN!!

(slapping on knees goes very fast, as if you were running... go through all the obstacles in reverse order and as fast as you can, with more slapping of hands on knees inbetween each obstacle.)

Out of the cave!
Run!!
Up the trees!
Down the trees!
Run!!!
Swim the river!
Run!!
Through the mud!
Run!!
Through the grass!
Run!!
HOME!

Song: This is the Way We...

Sparks act out each verse.  To the tuneof "Here we go round the mulberry bush"

This is the way we wash our hair, wash our hair, wash our hair.
This is the way we wash our hair, at least once a week.

This is the way we brush our teeth, brush our teeth, brush our teeth.
This is the way we brush our teeth, every time we eat.

This is the way we wash our face, wash our face, was our face.
This is the way we wash our face, morning and night.

This is the way we brush our hair, brush our hair, brush our hair.
This is the way we brush our hair, morning and night.

This is the way we gets lots of sleep, get lots of sleep, get lots of sleep.
This is the way we gets lots of sleep, every single night.

Song: Land of the Silver Birch

(usually the "My Paddle" part is a separate song, but if you listen to the Michael Mitchell version, it is like this)

My paddle's keen and bright
Flashing with silver
Follow the wild goose flight
Dip, dip and swing
Dip, dip and swing her back
Flashing with silver
Swift as the wild goose flies
Dip, dip and swing

---- This begins the Jubilee Song Book version:

Land of the silver birch
Home of the beaver
Where still the mighty moose
Wanders at will
Blue lake and rocky shore
I will return once more
Boom-diddy-boom boo, boom diddy boom boom, boom diddy boom boom boom.

My heart is sick for thee
Here in the lowlands
I will return to thee hills of the north
Blue lake and rocky shore
I will return once more
Boom-diddy-boom boo, boom diddy boom boom, boom diddy boom boom boom.

Swift as a silver fish,
Canoe of birch bark,
By mighty waterways
Carry me forth.
Blue lake and rocky shore
I will return once more
Boom-diddy-boom boo, boom diddy boom boom, boom diddy boom boom boom.

There where the blue lake lies
I'll set my wigwam -
Close to the water's edge,
Silent and still.
Blue lake and rocky shore
I will return once more
Boom-diddy-boom boo, boom diddy boom boom, boom diddy boom boom boom.

(note: this instrumental does not work with the "My Paddle" verse... start at "Land of the Silver Birch" to sing along)

Song: Brush Your Teeth

To the tune of "Row, Row, Row Your Boat"

Brush, Brush, Brush your teeth,
Morning, noon and night,
See your dentist twice a year,
And you will be all right.

Soap, soap, soap and towel,
Lots of water please.
Busily, busily, busily, busily,
Scrub your dirty knees!
