a number of children sit in a circle. One of them is appointed band-master and he stands in the centre of them. He gives each child the name of some musical instrument. Then he calls out the name of one of the instruments. The child who has that name pretends to play without making any noise. If he makes any sound or plays out of turn he is put out of the game.Jig
