  1. Blind Mans Buff = This is how to play "Blind Mans Buff." At first the girls stand in a line and one girl steps out and counts the girls as far as ten and whatever girl ten falls on will have to be blindfolded and then she waits until the other girls are ahide. Then she goes to every corner and whatever girl she catches will have to be blindfolded again and so on until all the girls are caught.
