    Sharing the Ring.
    Any number of boys can play this game. One boy holds a ring between his two palms. The other boys join their hands. The first boy pretends to drop the ring into each boy's hands. Each boy then guesses who has the ring. The boys that guess wrongly are punished by the first boy. Whoever guesses rightly is the first boy the next time.
