  1. Hide and Seek

    Share Share Post
    Hide-and-Seek is played this way. All the children form a ring and one is appointed to say the following words a word to each child. "One, two, sky, blue, all, out, but, you." The person who gets the last word is the hunter. A certain part of the wall is appointed a "Den". The hunter faces the wall and when they say "hide" he tries to seek them and and they try to get into the den and if he catches anyone he is the new hunter.
