Try this skit during Fire Prevention Week. It was developed by Den Leaders at a Cub
Scout leaders’ conference at Philmont Scout Ranch.
CAST: 7 GHOSTS, Cub Scouts dressed as ghosts (Or use decorated ghost paper puppets.)
SETTING: Dim lights
Draped sheet over table for graveyard effect.
1st GHOST: I smoked and smoked and smoked in bed
and now you see that I am dead.
2nd GHOST: My Pop said frayed wires were O.K.,
I became a spook without delay.
3rd GHOST: I saved oily rags to use again,
no telling what I might have been.
4th GHOST: We thought the campfire under control,
I just climbed out of my 6-foot hole.
5th GHOST: While in a hurry the hot grease splattered;
I didn’t know it really mattered.
6th GHOST: I played with matches, it was such fun,
‘Til I caught fire and began to run.
7th GHOST: I filled with gas the lawnmower hot,
so like the others now I’m not.
