Two children hold each other's hands and two more do the same.
Then they say, draw draw a bucket of water, for a lady's daughter, one in a bush, two in a rush, pretty little lady come under my bush.
Then they put their hands around that person & they will keep doing that until the four are in. Then they will go round in a ring. The game is then finished.
