Hopping Game

Squares are chalked on the ground, thus:--

[Illustration:

X]

and a stone or pebble is put at the place marked =x=.

The object of the game is to pass the pebble into each square with one
foot only, following the numbers in order. The child who is to begin
the game stands near the pebble, while the children say:--

Here is a game for you, hippity, hop,
Into the next place you make the stone pop.

The child then sends the stone into No. 1 square (hopping on one foot),
from that into Nos. 2, 3, 4 and so on. If the stone be sent outside the
square into which it should go, the player is out, and another begins.
The child who first gets the pebble into No. 10 square, having passed it
into each of the others successively, keeping on one foot all the time,
wins the game.
