3. Activity: Sing the Song B-I-N-G-O

The classic clapping song. Did you know this song has been around since the year 1780?

There was a farmer who had a dog,
and Bingo was his name-o.
B-I-N-G-O
B-I-N-G-O
B-I-N-G-O
And Bingo was his name-o.

After each verse, replace one more letter in B-I-N-G-O with a clap. Continue until all five letters have been replaced by claps.
