Game Day

Today was Game Day at soccer camp. Not like a soccer match but a review of all the games that the kids played throughout the week. The games included characters like Sponge Bob Square Pants, Dora the Explorer, and other childhood favorites that Sam has never heard of and calls by the wrong name later ("Sponge Bob Fancy Pants!"). My favorite one isn't really a game so much as a chant that I've been singing all week.

Bananas unite!

       Repeat: Bananas unite!

Bananas split!

       Repeat: Bananas split!

Banana peel to the left.

       Repeat: Banana peel to the left. 

Banana peel to the right.

      Repeat: Banana peel to the right.

Peel it down the middle and take a bite.

      Repeat: Peel it down he middle and take a bite.

Go bananas, go, go bananas!

There are actions for each line and at the end you do a crazy dance. I imagine that if you take one second to think about it, you actually know this chant from your own childhood. I recommend singing it and doing the actions several times a day. Life is decidedly better when you do.
