HIV prevention dance

In Malawi (Southeastern Africa) I was able to travel with a group called Action for Behaviour Change. I traveled with them a few days to do testing at a catholic school site. Then we traveled to another elementary school and they did a prevention presentation. The school didn't have any desks or chalk board. There were just a few open cement rooms. About 40 children followed in and sat down on the floor. The leader started singing a song and all of the children stood up and started singing along. One thing that I noticed about the children in Malawi is that they were always excited to sing and to sing as loud as they could. And I think they were all born with a beautiful rhythm! Later I found out that all of the songs were about prevention of HIV. These children were about 7-10 years old! I thought it was very clever to put the message to song. Because as we all know we don't forget songs and if they are really catchy we will get them stuck in our heads! Also, it is easy to memorize a song.
