Fox and Flock
Also known as El Zorro y las Gallinas, Mamá Gallina, El Lobo y las Ovejas
A mother hen protects a line of chicks by stretching her arms wide, the fox must grab the last chick in line.
How to play
One child is the zorro (fox) and one is the madre gallina (mother hen).
All other children line up behind the mother, each holding the waist of the child in front to form a winding chain.
The fox tries to grab the last child in line; the mother stretches arms wide and swerves the whole snake to keep the fox away.
If the fox tags the last chick, that chick becomes the next fox and the old fox becomes the mother.
Keep it fair
The chain must stay connected at all times, if it breaks, the fox wins an automatic point. This keeps the tail honest and stops the back half from detaching on purpose.
