  1. Frog in the Middle

    Share Share Post
    We often play a game of frog in the middle. All the girls stand in a ring. Then we choose one girl to be the frog. She blindfolds herself and stands in the middle of the ring. We all go around her. She catches one of us. She gets three chances to guess who that girl is. If she guesses right the girl whom she caught will be the frog. If she guesses wrongly she remains the frog. This continues till we have enough played.
