Here is a fun song to sing with your children. Display an Indian dream catcher and explain to them that dream catchers were used to filter out bad dreams. You may want to discuss with your children ways to cope with bad dreams.
Tune: “My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean”
I’m going to make a Dream Catcher.
I’m going to weave it just right.
I’m going to add some feathers
And beads to make it so bright.
Dream Catcher, Dream Catcher
Catch my dreams that are bad.
Dream Catcher, Dream Catcher
Bring me dreams that are glad!
I’m going to hang my Dream Catcher
Over my bed to – night,
So I will have only sweet dreams
Until the morning is light.
Dream Catcher, Dream Catcher
Catch my dreams that are bad.
Dream Catcher, Dream Catcher
Bring me dreams that are glad!
Jean Warren
