Title: Little Sally Walker
Description: Kids stand in a circle, or, with only two
players, one stnds still while the other one skips around them.
They say: "Little Sally Walker, walking down the street (clap, clap)
Didn't know what to do so she stopped in front of me
She said 'hey girl do your thing, do your thing and switch' (While standing, do silly things like dancing funny, jumping around, etc.
After the first "do your thing" the people switch places. The one in the middle will now go round the other person. If playing with a large group, the one in the middle will stop in front of someone and they will then switch places) 'hey girl do your thing, do your thing and switch'
Repeat!

Title: Blow out
Ingredients: Milk, laundry detergent,
large bowl, and food coloring
Instructions: Pour milk into the bowl just enough to fill it
up, and add a cup of laundry detergent. Then you
can add some food coloring to it ( as much as you
want) and simply blow on the food coloring and
watch as the colors spread out. This is not
edible and should not be stored but is a lot of
fun to play with and watch.
