Find The Ring

Category: QUIET GAMES



_10 to 30 or more players._

_Parlor; gymnasium; schoolroom._

The players sit in a circle, holding in their hands a long piece of
string tied at the ends so as to form a circle large enough to go
around, a small ring having been put upon this string. One player is
chosen to stand in the center. The players who are seated then pass
the ring from one to another, the object being for the player in the
center to detect who has the ring. The other players will try to
deceive him by making passes to indicate the passage of the ring when
it really is not in their vicinity. When the player in the center
thinks he knows who has the ring, he calls out the name of that
player. If right, he sits down, and that player must take his place in
the center. This game may be played by the players repeating the
following lines as the ring is passed around the circle


"Oh, the grand old Duke of York,
He had ten thousand men;
He marched them up the hillago,
And marched them down again.

"And when they were up they were up,
And when they were down they were down;
And when they were halfway up the hill,
They were neither up nor down."

This game may be played out of doors around a bush, in which case the
player who is It must circle around the outside of the ring formed by
the other players instead of standing in the center.
