The Stable

Source: Games Without Music For Children
Category: GAMES FOR THE SCHOOLROOM





This game may be played immediately after 'The Coach,' or it may be
played alone.

Directions.--The 'stable' is formed by a number of children who stand
in rows (see diagram) and join hands.

The 'hostler' (a boy) should stand near the 'stable.' When the 'coach'
(Game No. 24, p. 48) drives up, he goes to the driver and asks:

HOSTLER

Shall I take your horses for a rest and feed?
They are tired, I think, sir, and a drink they need.

DRIVER

Yes, good hostler, take and give them nice fresh corn,
With a pail of water; they have worked since morn.

The 'hostler' leads one horse into each stall, and pretends to give them
hay or corn. Then he carries water to them in a pail (a toy pail, price
1d., would do), and each drinks. After this he rubs them down, using a
brush or his hand.
