  2. Outdoor Games - Frog in the Well

    Share Share Post
    As many as like can play this game. All the children form a ring. Some child is put into the ring. All the children keep going aroud saying "Frog in the well and cannot get out." The child tries to get out under the other children's arms. But the children do not let him out. Whatever place the "Frog" gets out the person who is standing there will be the "Frog" the next time.
