How to play
1
One child is blindfolded with any available cloth and becomes the Körebe (blind midwife).
2
The other players draw a large circle that no one may exit.
3
They walk around the blindfolded player singing 'We sing a song and walk around, go on, guess who we are!' The blindfolded player grabs someone and must identify them by touch.
4
If correct, that child becomes the next Körebe.
Keep it fair
Before play, agree on the exact circle boundary using a scratched line or a row of shoes, disputes about who stepped out end immediately.
