Game Instructions
Everyone stands in a circle holding hands. The leader walks around outside the circle and sings, "Who is in the garden?" The group standing in the circle replies, "That's a little small girl/boy." The leader walks around outside the circle and says, "Can I come and see her?" The group replies, "No, no, no!" Then the leader says, "Now you follow me" and taps someone on the back. That person should follow the leader outside the circle.
The leader repeats, "Who is in the garden?" The group says, "That's a little small girl." The leader says, "Can I come and see her?" The group says, "No, no, no!" The leader says, "Now you follow me" and taps another person on the back. They keep doing this until there are only two left in the circle. Finally, the one left who wasn't tapped has to chase and catch the other people. Then they start another round of the game. The person who had to chase everyone is the leader in the new round.
