(Hands Up)


_10 to 30 or more players._

_Playground; gymnasium; schoolroom._

The players stand in a circle, with one in the center. Those in the
circle bend their elbows, which should touch the sides, and extend
their hands in front, with palms downward. The object of the one in
the center is to slap the hands of any player in the circle while thus
extended. The circle players may bend the hands downward or sideways
at the wrist, but may not withdraw the arms, or change the position of
the elbow. Any one slapped in this way changes places with the one in
the center.

The success of this game will depend upon the alertness of the one who
is in the center, who should dodge quickly and unexpectedly from one
part of the circle to another, with many feints and false moves that
will keep the circle players uncertain where he is going to slap next.
Played in this way, the game calls for much alertness on the part of
all concerned. The circle should not be too large, or the action will
be too slow to be interesting.

SCHOOLROOM
In the schoolroom this is played in groups with the
players seated instead of in a circle. Two rows face each other to
form a group, with feet drawn well under the seats. The one who is It
walks up and down the aisle.
