- This is a list of the games I play:
"London Bridges",
"Here Come the Robbers",
"Colours",
"Birds",
"Follow",
"The Old Witch",
"Here We Come for Nutsy May",
"Here come the Gipies",
"I have a little Dog",
"Frog in the Pan",
"Wall Flowers",
"Poor Sally was-a-weeping".This is the way "London Bridges" is played. Two children catch hands like a bridge. Then the others catch hands and run out under the bridge and they say this rhyme as they are passing out:
"London Bridges falling down, falling down, London Bridges falling down, fall-ing-down."
