Before you start the game mark a circular boundary in which players must remain. 2. Choose one player (girl or boy) to be "Grandma". Blindfold Grandma and turn her around several times. 3. The remaining players stand around Grandma within the circular boundary and the following conversation takes place:
Grandma: "On a barrel." Players: "What does the barrel hold?" Grandma: "It is full of fish." Players: "Grandma, are you as nimble as the fish?" Grandma: "Indeed I am." 4.
