   How to Play Sheep Sheep go to Grass One girl plays as mother, two others play as wolves and the others play as sheep. The mother sends her family, the sheep, to the grass and then she says "home home" the sheep says "No" and she says "the wolf is gone to Windgap and won`t be back till night". Then all the sheep start to run home while the wolves dash on them and catch all of them. This is played over and over again until all the children are caught.
