    I would get a handkerchief and tie it on one girls eyes and put her standing a piece away from the rest of the players until they were ready then she would run after them until she caught another girl and she would take off the handkerchief and put it on the other girl and then she would follow the rest until she caught some other one. We would keep at that game until we would be tired of it and then we would start some other game.
