BEAN BAG AND OAT SACK GAMES
_10 to 60 players._
_Schoolroom._
This is a relay passing race, the different rows of pupils competing
with each other in passing bean bags backward over the head.
The players should all be seated, there being the same number in each
row of seats. On each front desk a bean bag should be laid. At a
signal the first player in each row lifts the bean bag over his head
and drops it (it should not be thrown) toward the desk behind him,
immediately clasping his hands on his own desk. The next player
catches or picks up the bean bag from his desk and passes it backward
in the same manner. It is thus passed quickly to the rear of the line.
When the last pupil receives it, he runs forward at once to the front
of the line. As soon as he reaches the front desk, the entire row of
players move backward one seat, and the player who ran forward takes
the front seat, immediately passing the bag backward to the player
next behind him.
The play thus continues until the original occupant of the front seat
has again returned to it. Immediately that he is seated, he should
hold the bean bag up with outstretched arm, as a signal that his row
has finished. The row wins whose leader first does this.
