Make up a Camp DIY team song or cheer

What can we use if we don't have the 'noisemaker' mentioned in the materials?

Use household items like a plastic water bottle filled with rice, a wooden spoon and pot, or a paper towel tube as the noisemaker referenced in 'Make a simple beat using claps stomps or your noisemaker.'

Our team keeps rushing and missing cues when we sing at full speed — how can we fix that?

Follow the instructions to 'Practice the cheer slowly until everyone knows their part' while one person keeps a steady clap or a phone metronome, then gradually speed up before trying 'Practice the cheer at full speed with energy and smiles.'

How can we adapt the cheer for different ages?

For younger kids, shorten the cheer to 5–10 seconds with a single repeated chorus and one easy pose, and for older kids extend to about 30 seconds with an extra verse, more complex beat, or added call-and-response as suggested by 'Decide how long,' 'Create one short verse,' and 'Assign who sings.'

What are simple ways to improve or personalize our cheer before sharing it?

Personalize the cheer by adding team-themed props or matching colors, designing a simple team logo to display during the chorus, and recording your 'Perform your cheer' moment to 'Share your finished creation on DIY.org.'
