    Games
    We play a great deal of games at home and at school .The games are :- the cat and the mouse,hide and go seek,nuts in may,skipping and jack stones.
    The cat and the mouse is played with a crowd of girls who forms a ring.They hold up their hands .Then the girl who is the cat follows the girl who is the mouse .Then after a while if the cat does not catch the mouse a second cat comes and helps the first one to catch the mouse.This game is very amusing.
