    A Daisy Chain
    Girls make daisy chains in the summer. The daisies are pulled leaving as long a stem as possible. A small hole is put in the end of the stem. Another daisy stem is put into this hole and pulled through as far as its head. A hole is put in the stem of this daisy and another daisy put in as before, and so on till a chain is made which is long enough to round the neck or waist.
