Kitty White

_10 to 30 or more players._

_Indoors; out of doors._

This is an admirable game for very little children. Their dramatic
tendency should be given full rein in impersonating the soft movements
of the kitty and mousie before the chase begins.

Kitty White so slyly comes,
To catch the Mousie Gray;
But mousie hears her softly creep;
And quickly runs away.

Run, run, run, little mouse,
Run all around the house;
For Kitty White is coming near,
And she will catch the mouse, I fear.


One player is chosen for the mouse and stands in the center, and
another for Kitty White, who stands outside of the circle. The other
players join hands in a ring and move around, while singing the first
four lines. Meanwhile Kitty White is creeping around outside of the
circle, peeping in at little Mousie Gray. When the fourth line is
reached, "And quickly runs away," the circle stops moving and drops
hands while the mouse runs out and in through the circle, chased by
Kitty White. For the last four lines, while the chase is going on,
the players in the circle stand in place and clap their hands while
singing "Run, run," etc.

When the mousie is caught, both return to the circle, and another
mouse and kitty are chosen.
