I had a Girl Scout Dance coming up Sunday and I was thinking how I would get 
150 six to nine year old girls to know which hand was right and which hand is 
left.  On the way to my contra calling gig on Saturday, the thought arose that 
right hand sounds very close to red hand.  On the way to the Scout Dance, I 
stopped and purchased scissors and some red ribbon (the store did not carry 
yarn) and asked that the leaders tie a red ribbon bracelet around each scout as 
they entered the hall.  When I called dances with arm turns I called, "Turn 
your partner with your red hand, change hands, other way back."  It worked so 
well that I know I will do it again.

I thought I would share this trick, and then ask if anyone has useful methods 
when working with only children.  Please share some trade secrets.
