    Share Share Post
    The games I play at school are, Fool in the Middle, Hide and go Seek, High Windows, and See Saw.
    This is thee way Fool in the middle is played, four people stand in the form of a square and one in the middle called the fool, The other four change from one hole to the other while they are changing if the fool is able to get into some of the holes he is the fool. The other four change from one hole to the other while they are changing if the fool is able to get into some of the holes he is the fool no longer and the person that lost the hole is then the fool
