  1. Apple and Orange
    Apple and orange can be played with any number of players.
    Two players are needed to represent the apple and the orange
    All the other children come in then turn to the apple and orange members and are asked by them "apple or orange"? and according to which fruit they like best they will get behind the members represeting the "apple" or "orange"
    When this is ended a tug-of-war begins, and which ever crowd pulls away the other wins the game.
