  1. Blind Mans Buff
    One person out of the company is blindfolded. A piece of cloth is tied around his eyes. He has to try to catch one of the other boys. They keep away from him as much as possible. When they go away from him, they make noise and he runs to them and catches one of them. Then if he is not able to recognise him, he is released of his capture, and the search is continued.
