_3 to 30 or more players._
_Playground; gymnasium; schoolroom._
_Gas ball; basket ball; hand ball; bean bag._
This is a form of ball tag. In it each player chooses a home or
corner, as in Puss in the Corner, or Home Tag. When played out of
doors, trees may be used for this purpose; in a gymnasium, pillars or
different pieces of apparatus; in the schoolroom, the corners of the
room, the front and rear corner desks, the teacher's desk, the
radiator, or any other objective points. The players who are so
stationed beckon to each other to exchange places, and as they run
from one place to another the one who is It tries to hit them with the
ball. Any one so hit changes places with the one who is It.
As in all ball-tag games, either a ball or bean bag may be used. If
played in the schoolroom, a light gas ball should be used; elsewhere,
anything from a light-weight hand ball to a basket ball would be
suitable. Hard balls should be avoided.
Where there are many playing, it is advisable to have two or three
who take the part of thrower or Puss (It), in which case there will be
two or three balls or bean bags in play at the same time, and the game
is made more rapid.
