_2 to 10 players._

_Out of doors._

This is a pretty game for little children, recorded by Mr.
Culin, as played by the children of Japan, China, and Korea.

Each child gathers a handful of grass, the soft, flexible grass blades
being best for the purpose. The players are all seated in a group. One
child makes a loop of a blade of grass by holding the two ends in his
hand. Another child loops a blade of grass through this and the two
pull; the one whose grass blade breaks loses, and the two pieces as
trophies are given to the successful player, who then matches his
grass blade with the next, and so on around the circle until his grass
blade breaks, when he loses his turn and the next player has a similar
turn. The one wins who has the greatest pile of trophies at the end.
