Elephants have Wrinkles
Music: "I'm A Little Teapot"
TUNE
Elephants have wrin-kles, 
Wrin-kles, wrin-kles,
Elephants have wrin-kles, 
Wrinkles everywhere.

Elephants have wrin-kles, 
Wrin-kles, wrin-kles,
Elephants have wrin-kles, 
Wrinkles everywhere.

On their toes,
No one knows, Why-y-y-y.

(After the teaching of the song, you teach the dance!
The group joins hands, links arms, whatever.
The dance is a left toe behind right  foot, step to the right. 
Toe, step. Toe,step.
In time to the chorus of: ) 

"Elephants have wrin-kles, 
Wrin-kles, wrin-kles,
Elephants have wrin-kles, 
Wrinkles everywhere.

Elephants have wrin-kles, 
Wrin-kles, wrin-kles,
Elephants have wrin-kles, 
Wrinkles everywhere.

On their nose, on their toes,
No one knows, Why-y-y.

The dance stops, the arms are dropped, the fingers  point to the anatomy; nose, ears, knees, etc. 
At the phrase, "No one knows", the arms are raised  in question, the hands opened.
When the four step "Why-y-y-y", starts, the arms 
come down in time, then to join hands with the  rest of the group for the dance.)

This is really great for CSLBT or Pack Meetings,  because everyone is involved in the dancing. 
It also is very useful in getting the Cubs and  parents into a closing circle!
