    Cat and mouse: This is an easy game to play. The children form a ring and hold up their hands to make an arch between each player. One played is called the cat and he goes around outside the ring and touches one of he players. The player he touched is the mouse. He must run in and out under the arch and the cat must follow him under the same arch.
    If the cat goes into the wrong arch he becomes a mouse and the one who was the mouse first must follow him then.
