TAILS
Each player has a 'tail' - a piece of wide ribbon or a strip of fabric - tucked into the waistband of their clothes. The aim is for children to run around collecting as many of the other player's tails as possible by pulling them out, while simultaneously trying to keep their own tails! The game is over when there is only one player left with their own tail.
Children score one point for each tail they have at the end and the winner is the one with the most points.
