My WHO? Container

I have a container that I've cut strips of who can sing. I wrote "WHO" on it.  It's my WHO? can.  I use it to extend signing time and keep them singing. Since it's something I keep using it over and over, I thought I'd post about it.

For example, for the song  I Will Follow God's Plan I asked the Primary, "Who will follow God's plan?"  I invited a child to pick from the WHO? Container - and then I make a big deal about those kids ("Yes! people wearing blue will follow God's plan!!!") and only those kids sing. I first used the WHO? Container for the song I Lived in Heaven.  It's the same idea...(see it here!).

-----------------------

Ideas for WHO paper strips:

• hair color
• hair length
• eye color
• clothing color
• age (older than/younger than)
• girls / boys
• missing teeth
• have had a birthday this year / birthday coming up

WHO Lived in Heaven?

I took the 3 Bowls idea and made it even easier for the song I Lived in Heaven.

1. Quickly learn the song.
2. Invite a child up. Present the “WHO” bowl. Ask,“who lived in Heaven?”. Confirm, “yes, boys - you lived in Heaven! So you get to sing this time!”
3. Sing.
4. Repeat. (Present the “WHO” bowl. Ask,“who lived in Heaven?”. Confirm, “yes, kids wearing dresses - you lived in Heaven! So you get to sing this time!”)
5. Sing.
6. Repeat....

Ideas for the WHO? bowl (or basket or bag):

• boys
• girls
• eye color
• hair color
• hair length
• wearing dresses
• wearing ties
• clothing color
• missing teeth
• grown ups
• 8 and older
• have/had a birthday this year
