1. Rhymes Used in Games

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   When the children are playing games in the street they are always jealous when certain girls amongst them are picked to play some important part. To avoid they say the following rhymes

   1
   "My Mother and your Mother
   were washing out the clothes
   My Mother gave your Mother
   A box in the nose
   What colour blood ran
   from your Mother's nose?
   Shut your eyes and think "Red"
   R-e-d stands for red
   And if you do not want to play
   Take your hoop and run away"

   The girl on whom the last word falls is appointed

   Here is another long rhyme. We use it when a lot of children are playing

   2
   Three little teddy bears
   went to a shop
   What do you want?
