GAMES FOR THE PLAYGROUND
At the commencement of the game the children stand in a large ring, and
the girl who is to be 'Lame lassie' stands in the centre. The children
then say:--
Now Lame lassie give us chase,
Get one quick to fill your place.
They all run off, and 'Lame lassie' follows until she manages to touch
some other child. Wherever the latter is touched, she must place her
hand on that particular spot and run after the others until she is
successful in reaching some one else. Sometimes a child will be holding
its shoulder or elbow, or it may have to hold up one leg and hop on the
other. This is a game which causes much fun and merriment.
