I had never heard of Do-Dah Day until I read your post! I am SO doing some of these songs tomorrow, in honor of Saturday’s holiday. I might even suggest doing them at our intergenerational summer Sunday School that starts this week. Thanks for the inspiration!
Go forth in silly songs!
Jordan! Who KNEW???!! Better yet . . . How did YOU know that June 4 was / is Do-Dah Day?!
Lovely idea and arrived just in the nick of time! Thanks so much for sharing this. It’s still cracking me up!
I have my sources! Glad it could help you.
