This song /game has been so popular in my Western concerts, that I wanted to share it with you. Younger and older children love it, and will want to do it over and over again. Younger children can hide their hands behind their backs to make the hiding easier. This traditional chant comes from the Native American Maidu tribe which lived in the Sierra Nevada mountains during the California Gold Era. Children would play a little game while singing the chant.
