BEAN BAG AND OAT SACK GAMES
_10 to 30 or more players._
_Gymnasium; playground; schoolroom._
_Bean bags; balls._
There should be a bean bag for each of the players except one. All of
the players form a circle, separated from each other by a small space.
At a signal from a leader, each player turns toward his right-hand
neighbor and tosses his bean bag to him, turning at once to receive
the bag which is coming to him from the left. The game should move
rapidly, but of course this is a matter of skill and may have to be
acquired. With very little children it may be advisable to first play
the game with a fewer number of bean bags, till they grow accustomed
to tossing and turning quickly to catch. Balls may be used instead of
bean bags if desired.
When the tossing has gone once or twice around the circle to the
right, the direction should be changed to the left. It is well to have
one of the bean bags of a different color from the others, so as to
know when the circle has been completed. Any player failing to catch a
bag must pick it up and toss it regularly to his neighbor.
