  1. All the children form in two's and make a ring then two go out into the middle of the ring and one tries to catch the other and if the person that is being chased stands in front of anybody before she sis tipped then the person behind the one she stands in front of runs off. If the person that is being chased is not tipped she can stand in front of anybody before she gets the tig, then the game begins over again.
