  1. Sardines

    Share Share Post
    Sardines is an outdoor game. Any number of children can play it. The children are put in a line and the person that twenty falls on must go off and hide.
    When he has hidden, the others go look for him, and the first that finds him stays with him until the others find them. The person who finds the hidden boy first goes off the next time and the others go to look for him and so on like that.
