- 22-3-1938I play a lot of games at home and at school.
Here are some of them "The Farmer goes a riding" "There was a girl in our school" "Sugar-stick and Candy" "Here we go gathering nuts in May" " A duck goes a riding" and "Blind mans Buff." In "the Farmer goes a riding" "The duck goes a riding" "Here we go gathering nuts in May" and Sugar-stick and Candy, the children join hands in two lines and dance in and out and sing the rhyme of the game.This is the rhyme of "Sugar-stick and Candy" - Who will buy the milking can,
