HOW TO PLAY:

Children stand in a circle, with hands joined. One child is chosen to be the 'Runner', who leaves the ring and walks around the outside of the circle. At the words: "The one I touch", the runner taps the shoulder of a child who becomes the chosen Chaser, who must then leave the circle to try and catch the Runner.

If the Runner isn't caught before he reaches his place in the ring, the children cheer and clap hands, and the game starts again. The Chaser from the last game becomes the Runner for the next round.

If you haven't already done so, please take a moment to read our page 'About Copyrights' regarding use of the songs on this site and other related information.
