HOW TO PLAY
1

Gather everyone in a loose circle around a safe central fire pit or lantern.

2

A designated leader starts a well-known spring song, and the group joins in on the chorus.

3

Between songs, players take turns naming something they are glad to see the end of winter for.

4

The circle slowly rotates clockwise during the singing to keep everyone facing the light.

5

The gathering closes with one final song sung all together at full volume.
