Hey Kids, My oldest son just started into Beavers (Scouts for 5 to 7-year-olds, for the uninitiated), and I've become a leader. The other leaders are uncomfortable singing, so I volunteered to do it. I'm wondering what the average song length is that I can expect these kids to learn. My son is very good at remembering lyrics, and has no problem with songs with three or four verses and a chorus, but I think he may be the exception to the rule. What do you think these kids are capable of? Maybe some two verse songs? There is a Beaver songbook, but all the songs are really lame. I'd like to teach them a few folk songs that they might not have learned otherwise. If you'd like to suggest any songs, that'd be great too. Thanks, Paul
