The safety skit is intended to teach the girls safety at
camp in a “Bernstein Bear” fun way. You can put this together quickly as each
girl has a quick rule to memorize and the dad can read his part. Dad is sitting
in a chair and the girls are standing around him getting ready to go on
vacation. Several girls run up and surround Dad to act out their part then they
walk away shaking their head cause dad doesn’t know what he is talking about
till the end when they find out he was just testing them. ENJOY
NOTE-If you have more than 28 girls just split a couple
parts OR give a girl 2 parts if you have less girls
You will need 3 copies – 1 for narrator, 1 for Dad and 1 to
cut up for the girls parts!
SAFETY SKIT
Narr: There once was an old camper who lived in a boot..
He had so many children that he didn't know what to do...t
So he pondered and prayed and came up with a solution
His idea was to just get out of the pollution.
So he called all his children in groups at a time,
to train them and guide them so camp would be fine.
Dad..(sitting in a chair)..We must get away
Narr....he said with a sigh
Dad...to camp Big Bear
Narr.... he grinned
Dad....where the mountains are high.
So give me some tips so our camp will be great ..
We must hurry , my children, so we don't get there late !
Come___________________ Come__________________ (2 or 4 girls run in)
review with me the rules.
The days are so hot and the nights are sooooooooooo cools,
Sooooooo at night, I'll build a fire IN the A-frame,
we"ll stay close
The A-frame will be warm and hotter than toast.
#1... But DAD,my camp manual said you should NOT build
a fire inside, or you could get....KILLED!
#2......If a big fire starts accidently
send someone to report the fire as fast as can be!
#3...... FYI---If a TENT catches fire, or there's a fire
near,
Pull out the tent poles and then have NO FEAR.....
You can stamp on a flat tent or throw water there,
But a standing tent burns quickly...HURRY don't be SQUARE !
#4 ... STOP...DROP...and ROLL is the motto we remember
If my cloths catch on fire, DO NOT run....it burns faster !!
Roll in the dirt, it sounds so fun
but you'll save yourself if you don't act dumb!
Dad....Oh we'll eat good on our camp this year,
Dutch oven and hot scones and S'mores so dear.
And if the grease spills, or by chance catches fire,
I'll grab my squirt gun and shoot till I'm tired!
#5 ...oh Daddy NO ! NEVER NEVER pour water
What are you thinking my dear sweet father?
Smother the Flames with salt, soda, or sand,
Be careful, dear Dad, so you don't burn your hand .
Dad.....________________ , __________ and______________(more
girls join
dad)
Please come here right NOW!
Electrical storms make a very loud POW !
Don't worry my darlings, the rain will soon come,
I'll just run in the meadow, get wet and have fun.
#6 .......I'm sorry, my father, I hate to make waves (hee
hee)
but the CAMP
BOOK
#7......Find a cave or steel building, but don't touch the
sides,
If you're wet and it hits you....you'll Surely be FRIED !
#8..... Avoid tops of ridges and lone tall trees
The safest place is in the car....Yes-sir-ee-z!!!
Dad....Now I'll get a firm backpack and pack it with CARE.
I'll make sure I have everything...combs and brushes to
share!
All girls (yell.)....yuck.......Lice!!!
Dad.....TV, VCR, pots and pans and lots of food
A toilet a stereo and tapes to set the mood!
#9........But Dad , our camp manual says, pack VERY light,
just the things that you need to spend a few nights.
#10 It's nature, the birds and the trees and the deer---
Camp songs, testimonies and all the camp cheers.
All chant......We are the youth leaders (3x)
Dad.....Come now my children, lets talk about hikes.
Getting away from it all makes you feel just right.
If its sunny and warm, I'll wear a swimsuit and thongs.
That way I can tan, while I walk and get strong.
#11 .... Oh daddy , we love you, but haven't you read.
the camp manual says,"keep a hat on your head".
#12.... Sunstroke, sunburn and headaches too,
will ruin your fun if that's what you do.
#13...... Your shoes should support and protect your feet
and two pair of socks that you change would be neat.
#14.... Wear socks without holes, no seams, and no sewing.
Your hike will be pleasant wherever you're going.
#15..... Air out your shoes with newspaper inside.
It will take out the moisture while they sit side by side.
(demo)
#16.... No wonder your blisters are killing you now,
if you'd read the camp manual, you'd really know how.
#17.....As far as the swimsuit, I'm sorry to say,
long pants and a long shirt is best for hike day.
#18.... Our camp leaders told us, “no hiking alone,
the BUDDY SYSTEM is how you should roam."
#19..... To the bathrooms, the wilderness, to here and to
there--
if you had someone to go with, you could talk and take care.
Dad.....Have you all got your knives all ready to use?
I carry mine OPEN, right down in my shoe.
It’s a great place to keep it, it saves so much time---
it peels the potatoes so tasty and fine.
#20.....STOP DADDY...Stop Daddy!! You're scaring me now
Please pass me the knife and I'll show you how (Dad passes
the wrong way)
#21....Not the blade first dear father, someone could get
cut!
Pass the handle first and you'll have better luck!
#22 .......Cut AWAY from yourself, safety first is a must!
Keep it closed when you're done, says the manual we trust!
#23..... And while we are talking about things that
KILL...--
THE AX is a problem that really is real!
Before chopping, hold the ax at arms length, moving slow,
turn in a full circle and soon you will know...
if you touch anything, then there is NOT enough room-
and your very best friend could end up in a tomb!
#24..... Use a chopping block or a solid log
Remember..DON'T EVER chop in the FOG.
Its the sharp edge of the blade and the weight of the ax,
not just sheer muscle to accomplish that task.
When splitting a stick, raise ax AND stick in the air
Then bring them down on the grain if you dare!
Dad....I think I'll pack a large case of gum,
'cause the skunks and the animals will want to have some.
#25 ....No dad! I hear chewing gum is against the rule
the animals will die and you'll feel like a fool!
#26.....Now Dad, just lie down while we sharpen your tools
Take a break, get some air, so you can remember the rules!!!
Dad......Oh kids, I'm JUST FINE....I was just testing you.
You knew it so well and you covered it too.
Come along, you're so smart! Get packed, we'll have fun
To camp
Kolob
Narr......And I heard them exclaim, as they hiked out of
sight.....
ALL..."Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good
night"!!!!!
