- Game: - A Donkey without a Tail Draw a donkey. Cut off the tail. Pin the donkey without the tail to the wall. Blindfold a child. Give her the tail. She'll have to endeavour to put the tail on the right part of the donkey while blindfolded. Very seldom a child succeeds. The child who succeeds wins the game.Stasia Connolly,
