Once the children have discussed, I would ask them the types of things we might do, until we get to singing songs around the campfire. Once we have spoken about this, relating camping to something that might be scary or exciting to them, I will play them “Kum Ba Yah”. I will explain that the song was used to keep children happy and calm, and make them have no fear. This will lead into how Christians may use it now.
