  1. My favourite game is "Sally O" "Sally O" "One, Two, Three," In this game every player stands against a wall. One of them goes over to the opposite wall and turns in towards the wall and calls "Sally O" Sally O" and as he says this each player moves towards the caller (turns) the caller turns around and if he sees any of the players moving he says "One, Two, Three," and that player has to go back to the place he started from" The first one to reach the wall the caller is at without being seen wins.
