A NEW game which you will enjoy playing is called “Menagerie.” Choose
one of the children for “keeper” and blindfold him. After he is
blindfolded, each of the others must choose the name of some animal.
The “animals” then form a circle around the keeper and march about
him till he gives the order to “halt.” Then he calls for an animal to
come into the “cage” (the circle), such as “bear.” The bear enters the
circle and, standing near the keeper, growls. The keeper must guess the
name of the child who is the bear, and if he fails he must be keeper
again. If he guesses right the “bear” becomes the keeper. Each child,
when called into the circle, must make the noise of the animal he
represents.
