I hope the Kappas like it. Personally I feel some kind of way about these videos.

When I was the little girl's age, I knew what Delta meant. But Mama Jitterbug did not have me trying to do the 'mid and ooo-oooping. She just put on a "I belong to a Delta" t-shirt (and there are pics to prove this).
The "Future Nupe" reminding me of a child trying to resite his Easter speech and the parent(s) trying to help him remember.

This raises a question...
How do you all feel when you see children participating in step-shows throwing signs and what not? Do you feel that is okay? In my opinion, I don't see anything wrong with the young lad in the video. It reminds me of me and my neice. Since she could speak, I have taught her the "pretty on my left..." chant. Not for her to be "pro" XYZ org., but rather to get her on her way to being confident. If the child is handling business in school (and can recite ABC's as well), then I don't see a problem.

I don't like that either. IMO, there is a sense of entitlement or obligation being instilled that may not play out so cute in the fuuture.

True enough... ultimately I feel like if you to force it on the kids too early and at such a young age they'll either turn in the opposite direction and pledge a different org just to spite you (for dressing them in ABC org colors everyday) or get burned out on the whole idea of greeklife and not pledge at all, which is fine... but I understand the whole wanting to keep up the tradition.

Then thats their decision, when it comes time to make a choice at least they will have some knowledge about greek life. I wouldnt mind if my son choose another org as long as he did it RIGHT and it wasnt iota .
I like the video, its kool as long as they arent singing the songs and throwing up the hand signs when they are 12.
