Keep America Beautifull

Scene: Flower and grass wave gently in the breeze. Trash can is sleeping. Litterbug is laughing
and throwing pop cans and bottles on flowers, and candy wrappers and newspaper on
grass.

Flower:                       Oh, what hit me? My petals are crushed.
Grass:                        You should complain. They buried me.
Pop can:                    You think I like being thrown around? I could be recycled for money!
Bottle:                         Does anyone realize my potential? I could be a flower vase!
Litter Bug:                  (Laughs) I love a dirty world. Ugly is so fun!
Newspaper:              I should be nicely bundled.
Candy Wrapper:      Just look at me. I was meant to be sweet and bring happiness.
Cub Scout:                (Sees trash can sleeping) Wake up the trash can, LITTERBUG WAS HERE!
Trash can:                 Help, help! You would think I was on a diet. No one will ever feed me! All I
                                    ever do is wait and wait and wait and...
Cub Scout:                Litterbug is one bug RAID won’t kill. It takes everyone’s help to get rid of
                                    this pest. (Picks up trash and puts in the trash can--moves behind the trash can)
Litter Bug:                  Foiled by a Cub Scout again! (Runs off)
Flower & Grass:       Thank you! We thought we’d never get help!
Cub Scout:                It takes everyone’s help to have and keep a beautiful world.

Costume suggestions:
Pop can, Bottle, Newspaper--Attach items (for bottle use plastic) on clothing.
Flower--Green shirt, paper petals attached to the yellow cap.
