  2. The Game of Tig

    Share Share Post
    When playing "Tig" one child follows all the rest.
    When he catches one of them he tips him and says "Tig".
    Then this boy has the "Tig" and follws the rest until he catches one.
    He tips him and says "Tig" just as the first boy said to him and he follows the others and so on.
