    Statues
    All the children who are playing line up against a wall. One of the children are in charge of them. She catches them by the hand and flings them out and whichever way they land they are to stay that way. It goes on like that until they are all flung out. She goes around to them and tickles them and whichever one laughs they are called the devils and whichever one does not laugh they are called angels.
