How to play

  1. The seeker closes their eyes and counts out loud.
  2. Everyone else hides.
  3. When the seeker spots someone, they call out that player’s name and race to base; if the hider touches base first, they are safe.

Safety

Always play these games with an adult watching, in a way that suits your child’s age and the surface underfoot. Keep games with small pieces (marbles, five stones, mangala) away from children under 3.
