The Germ Song

The flu has hit North America hard this year. One of the best preventions is that of washing your hands. There are a few songs out there that you can sing while your washing your hands to ensure that you have washed them long enough to eliminate as much germs as possible.  The health department will usually suggest that you wash your hands for as long as it takes to sing the tune "Happy Birthday" or as long as it takes for you to sing your ABC's.  Another song is the "Germ Song" for Cub Scouts.  This song has the same tune as Happy Birthday.

• No dirty paws for me,
• No dirty paws for me,
• A Wolf Scout is clean …
• No dirty paws for me.
• Clean paws keep me strong,
• Clean paws keep me strong,
• A Wolf Scout is smart …
• Clean paws keep me strong!

Here is another fun song to play for your Cub Scouts to help them with washing their hands.
