The Twelve Days of Christmas

Characters: Bob, 12 Cub Scout friends (if den has less than 12 boys, have them do several parts)

Props:  Items called for in skit on a table (use your imagination to create wilder items) 

Setting:  Bob is standing by table with props.  As each boy enters, he hands him the appropriate item.

Bob:  You're welcome!

(Each cub takes items and exits.  Then next cub enters from opposite side of stage)

Cub #12: On the twelfth day of Christmas my good friend gave to me -- twelve dump trucks dumping.  Thanks Bob!

Bob:
Bye, pal! (last cub exits, table is cleared of all props) Now, let's see.  That was (singing) 12 dump trucks dumping, 11 pies for pitching, 10 leaping lizards, 9 dirty dustpans, 8 mugs for milk shakes, 7 soggy sweatshirts, 6 greasy rags, 5 RUSTY NAILS, 4 comic books, 3 French fries, 2 napkins and a knob to adjust my TV.  (looks at audience and wipes brow)

Whew! I finally did it.  I finally got my closet cleaned out!
