Hats off to Hats!

I love collecting fun hats for the kids' dress-up box, and they work great for primary as well.  Last week I brought in a bunch of fun hats, and then I passed them out to the kids who were singing nicely.  I did this a few times, moving them around from person to person so most everyone got a chance to wear one. 

Just a few of my fun hats!

 After that, I did my usual and turned it into a game of torturing their teacher, ME!  We sang the song Primary Children Sang as They Walked (pg 214) which has a lot of repetition of the word "walk".  So when we sang the word, I had the kids who hadn't had a turn with hats take one from someone and walk it up to me (I was sitting on the floor so little kids could reach) and stack it on my head, meanwhile I am trying to sing, conduct, and balance about 20 hats by the end.  Of course, they loved it when they all fell down and I had to try to stack them up again.  I will say I was sweating pretty good by the end of that one.  Here's to Hats!
