LOOK OUT FOR THE BEAR!


Any number of children can play this game. One is chosen to be the
"bear," and he hides in some part of the room or garden, while the
rest, with their backs turned, are standing at their goal.

As soon as the children have counted 50 or 100, they all scatter and
hunt for the "bear." The child who finds him first calls out, "Look
out for the bear," and all the children run to their goal.

If the bear catches any while running for the goal, they become
"bears." These "bears" hide together and the game continues until all
the children are "bears."



HOOP RACE.


All children love to roll hoops. For a little folks party, plan to
have as many hoops as children, so each can have one.

Bind these around with tape or ribbon. The children contest one at a
time. The child who succeeds in rolling his hoop around the room three
times without having it turn over or stop, wins the prize.

If the room is very large once or twice around will be enough, so the
children aren't tired out.
