Ring Around A Rosy

Source: Games For All Occasions
Category: MAY DAY





The children take hold of hands and form a circle; except one who stands
in the center of the ring. They circle around singing this little verse

Ring Around a Rosy
A pocket full of posy
The one who stoops last
Wants to be your Beau-sy

When the verse is ended the children in the circle stoop quickly and the
last one down must join the child in the center of the ring. The circle
of children go around again singing the same ditty. The last child to
stoop this time joins the one who went into the circle the previous time
and the child who has remained through the two verses steps out and
joins the children in the circle.
