Wholesome Homeschoolers
The Saturday before Easter, we went camping in the Everglades…. again. I think this whole camping thing is beginning to be a hobby. So, after Dad had put up the tent, I sat with the children while Dad had some quiet time in the shade.
We played some hand clapping games, and the easiest, funnest one that we played was one where we sat in a circle. We rested our right hand on the left hand of the person to the right of us. On each beat, the right hand slaps the right hand of the person to the left, and the slapping continues around the circle. The song goes, “Down by the lake of the Hanky Pank, where the bullfrog jumps from bank to bank, A-E I O U, your Momma stinks and so do you. Say, Ping pong, Ding dong, Your Daddy smells like King…” And when we’re about to sing, “KONG,” the last person has to be fast enough to slap the neighbor’s hand. But the Neighbor has to be fast enough to take his hand out and get the Last person to slap his own hand.
So anyway, a week later, the children are still singing their favorite part to each other, “Your Momma STINKS!” really loudly.
It’s kinda funny.
“And so do you!” That’s even funnier.
