  1. (continued from previous page)
    What colours?
    Yellow.
    The boy who has yellow will go with the devil. So on until no one is left. Then a tug of war takes place.
    Four Corners
    Five boys play this game. Four boys take up four corners and another boy stays in the middle. The boys in the corners say; -
    Birdie, Birdie, come to me.
    And I will go to you.
    Then each boy rushes to change corners and the middleman rushe too. If the middleman succeeds in getting a corner the boy without a corner will be middleman next time.
