- One player is chosen for the frog and sits in the center on the floor. Where there are more than twenty players it is better to have two frogs. The other players stand in a circle around the frog repeating "Frog in the sea can't catch me". They dance forward towards the unfortunate one in the center tormenting him and risking been caught.
