HOW TO PLAY
1

Players form a line holding onto the waist of the person in front, led by a "mother crab" at the front.

2

One player stands facing the line as the "crab catcher" and tries to grab the very last player, the "baby crab."

3

The mother crab spreads her arms and moves side to side to block the catcher's path.

4

The whole line swings and shifts together to keep the last player out of the catcher's reach.

5

Once the catcher manages to tag the last player, that player becomes the new catcher and the line reforms.
