- Post GAB pictures of Christ with each line (GAB 116, 108, 57, 56)
- Make key words to put all over the walls for them to put next to the correct picture
- Pass out hymn books and have those that can read follow along with the music
- Have them listen to the music and move their wands to how it makes them feel
- Pitch lead (move the wands up or down depending on how the notes are)
- Make the wands bounce when the song does (wonderful, care for me, die for me)
- Listen and then sing the rhyming words - raise your wands when you hear a word rhyme
- Raise wands every time we hear "wonderful"
- Create actions with our wands (when we sing "stand," have them lift up their wands, make a heart shape when we sing "love,"shake the wand like it's trembling for "tremble," make a cross for "crucified," for "suffered" touch a palm with the wand where Christ had nails, etc.)
- Learn how to crescendo (get louder, vigorously shaking wands) and decrescendo (get softer, shaking softly)
- Sing the song legato or smoothly and wave the wands back and forth the same way
- Define new words but without a dictionary
- Breathing techniques - draw a "rainbow" with their wands and only breathe at the end of the phrase or "rainbow"

Activity:
Bring a basket with various-sized balls and tie the song to how many baskets the kids get out of four tries. You could either pick one kid to try all four shots, or you could have a class come up at a time and take turns on each shot. I'm going to suggest the latter for Jr. Primary - I don't want any of the little kids to feel put on the spot or badly if they aren't a good shot.
1 Basket - Name That Tune with Program Songs. If a child gets 1 basket, pick another child to come up and throw basketballs to determine how many notes the pianist will play to help them guess WHICH program song they'll be singing.
2 Baskets - Program/Easter Songs with Ways to Sing Dice. Sing a Program Song or an EASTER song (at least for Sr. Primary, since they know the Program Songs really well), and roll my Ways To Sing Dice for a fun way to sing.
3 Baskets - Wiggle Song. Pick a Wiggle Worm and sing the corresponding Wiggle Song.
4 Baskets - Kids Choice. The kids can pick any church song they'd like. Whoever gets 4 baskets may pick one of my ribbon wands and lead the music.

Activity: Springtime Program Review Activity - Ideas found at...http://www.theideadoorfiles.com/index.php/primary/277-primary/music/singing-time-ideas/1037-ultimate-primary-music-ideas-almost-200-ideas
Umbrella: Call a child up to hold the umbrella. I "rained" on the umbrella with a spray bottle set at mist.....but it only rained when the children sang well. As was suggested by the originator of this idea, I occasionally sprayed one of the kids singing and I sprayed the child holding the umbrella. With each time singing, I had a different child hold the umbrella
Raindrop Singing: Cut out raindrops and tape them to an umbrella, let the kids take turns picking a raindrop. This is easy to tie in to a spiritual message - talk about how the prophet is like the umbrella and if we follow him he will protect us from the storms of life or the Savior is like the umbrella, or obedience is like the umbrella -etc.
