“One person puts one pin in one of his hands behind his back and you do not know which hand it is in.”
One person puts a pin in one of his hands behind his back and you do not know which hand it is in. Then the person shows you his two hands and they are closed. Then you start on some of the hands saying one word to each hand and say:-
Pippety Poppety,
Play me a pin,
whither I lose,
or whither I win,
This is the door,
I must get in.
If the guessing person finishes on the hand that the pin is in that person takes the pin and repeats the game.- Collector
