I HAVE A BASKET.

Source: Games for Everybody






One child begins by saying: "I have a basket." The one to his left
says: "What is in it?" The first one replies with the name of some
article beginning with "a," as "apples."

No. 2 says: "I have a basket," and the next one to him says: "What is
in it?" No. 2 replies: "Apples and bananas," (or some other word
beginning with "b").

No. 3 says: "I have a basket." No. 4 asks the same question as before
and No. 3 responds with "Apples, bananas, and cats," and so on, each
in turn repeating what the others have said, and adding another
article, which commences with the next letter of the alphabet.
Whoever forgets what the other articles were must pay a forfeit. Thus
it continues until the last one has named all the articles in order,
and ended with "z".




Next: STILL POND, NO MORE MOVING.

Previous: PUSS IN THE CORNER.
