MAGIC CANDLES.

Source: Games for Everybody
Category: GAMES FOR SPECIAL DAYS.



Arrange twelve candles, one for each month, in a row about two feet
apart. Have the candles different colors suggestive of the months they
represent, such as, green for March and red for December.

The children form in line and one at a time jump over the candles,
which are lighted.

If a light goes out the child who has just jumped will have bad luck
in that month which the candle represents.
