Crossing the water on the fisher's call

- ◆ easy
What you need
- Marked playing field
How to do it
- One child is the fisher and stands at one end of the marked field, the rest of the group at the other.
- The group calls “Fisher, fisher, how deep is the water?” and the fisher names a number, for example “Three metres!”.
- The group asks “And how do we get across?” and the fisher calls out a way of moving, such as running, hopping or crawling.
- The children must cross in that way. The fisher runs toward them and tries to catch as many as possible.
- Caught children help the fisher in the next round.
