When I was going to school we used generally play "tig". It would be given out on a number of boys on girls as follows.
Hainie Mainie fig-idie fig
Dil doll dom in in aw nig
Block itie block stony rock
Hum bum thrush
O-U-T spells out and out you must go. That person would then be "on it" and would have to "tig" another chap and then he would be on it.
Another game was "hunt the fox" two or three of the best runners in the school would be got and they would be let off for about ten minutes, and then a crowd would go in pursuit. The boys they would be following would throw pieces of white paper on the ground,(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
