The Little Green Frog
There are a lot of great movements associated with this song. You can continue to sing the song faster or louder until it gets out of control. We also knew this song sometimes as MMM ACK Since most of the “EH”s were pronounced more like ACK.
- Make frog eyes with hands next to head and open and close them when saying MMMM, EH
- Swing hands in circle on hips for TRA LA LA LA LA
- Honk truckers horn (pull down on an imaginary string with your arm bent 90 degrees) on HONK HONK
- Lick hand when the Frog gets licked up
MMMM, EH Went the little green frog one day
MMMM, EH Went the little green frog
MMMM, EH Went the little green frog one day
and they all went MMMM, EH
WEELLLL, we all know frogs go..
TRA LA LA LA LA
TRA LA LA LA LA
TRA LA LA LA LA
we all know frogs go
TRA LA LA LA LA
they dont go MMMM, MMMM, EH!
HONK! HONK! went the big red truck one day
SPLIT, SPLAT! went the little green frog
Now the little green frog dont MMMM. EH no more
cuz he got licked up by a dog *slurping noise*

Tie Dye Shirts
This was one of the most fun projects we did at summer camp. Yes, it’s messy but tie dye shirts are a great project that girls of all ages can enjoy – and enjoy wearing! If you’re doing this for a camp, you should include a white shirt specially for crafts on the packing list. To boot, Tie Dye Shirts make for a great souvenir to bring home from camp. For a troop activity, you can either buy the t-shirts for your girls or send home a request for them to send an old white or really light colored t-shirt for the project.

Materials Needed:
- Tulip One-Step Tie Dye Kit Rainbow
- White t-shirt
- Rubber bands
- Plastic gloves
- Plastic tablecloth
- Scissors
Directions:
- Wash the t-shirt in a clothes washer to remove sizing.
- Cover your work surface with the plastic tablecloth.
- Place the damp shirt on your prepared surface and smooth flat. To create a traditional bulls-eye design, pinch the front of the shirt just above the center then lift fabric up and scrunch fabric into a tube shape. Wrap a rubber band about 2″ from the tip, wrapping several times until tight. Repeat every 2″ or so along the entire shirt.
- Wearing gloves from the dye box, fill a dye bottle halfway with water. Replace the cap and shake until all the dye is thoroughly mixed. Remove the lid, add more water to the line indicated on bottle, and replace the cap and shake to mix.
- Carefully squeeze one color of dye on tip, turning shirt until entire tip has dye.
- Squeeze another color dye around center of next section, letting it bleed toward rubber bands. Insert tip of bottle into folds and squeeze more dye as needed.
- Avoid squeezing the dye too close to the rubber bands so you can leave white rings between the colors. Rotate through the colors available in the kit evenly.
- Let the dye set 4-6 hours. Use scissors to carefully cut off the rubber bands.
- Fill a clothes washer to a full load setting with a small amount of laundry soap. Once agitation strts, insert the t-shirt. Dry in clothes dryer or line dry.
Safety Tips!
- Adult supervision is required when using the dye.
- Adults should cut off the rubber bands when working with younger girls.
Linger
One of my favorite songs for closing campfire! To this day it still brings back memories of that last night at camp, wanting to linger all summer and not wanting to say goodbye to new friends. Even worse, that last night after working the whole summer as a counselor and really not wanting to go back to real life after 2 1/2 magical months in nature!
Mmm Mmm I want to linger,
Mmm Mmm a little longer,
Mmm Mmm a little longer here with you.Mmm Mmm it’s such a perfect night,
Mmm Mmm it’s doesn’t seem quite right,
Mmm Mmm that this she be my last with you.Mmm Mmm and come September,
Mmm Mmm we’ll still remember,
Mmm Mmm our camping days and friendship true.Mmm Mmm and as the years go by,
Mmm Mmm I’ll think of you and sigh,
Mmm Mmm this is good night and not goodbye.Mmm Mmm I want to linger,
Mmm Mmm a little longer,
Mmm Mmm a little longer here with you.
