Walas Paula  Asia  Sri Lanka  Running around game  No props  N.o.p.: 25
About seven groups of three children are standing in a circle. Every child of a group gets a number: one, two or three. In the middle of the circle stand two referees, one of them is yelling out every time one number. The child of each group with that yelled-out number, must then immediately run clockwise as fast as he can until he reaches again his group. The two referees will decide which boy or girl is first back in his group. If your group has won several times, then that group will be the winner.

Valayal  Velauattu  Asia  Sri Lanka  Running around game  No props  N.o.p.: 20
Around ten groups of two children are standing in a circle while holding their hands tied together high in the air. All children must run under their hands. When they hear a hard hand-clap sound, the tied hands of all children will go down. If you are caught within these
‘traps’-hands, you are out. The winner is the last child who still runs free!
