    Present Day
    Blind man's Buff
    Blind man's buff is sometimes called "puicin". One person is blind-folded and something is hidden and he is sent searching for it. This is a dangerous game as sometimes people strike up against walls and get hurt.
    Statues
    Sometimes people are Put sitting on a wall. Another person comes along and pulls them down. They must remain in the position in which they fall. Then the person "tickles" them under the chin and if they laugh they are called a "statue".
