HOW TO PLAY
1

Players form a circle holding hands, with one player chosen as the cat and another as the mouse.

2

The mouse starts inside the circle and the cat starts outside it.

3

The circle players raise and lower their joined arms to let the mouse pass in and out but try to block the cat.

4

The cat chases the mouse, ducking under arms and weaving through gaps the circle allows.

5

Once the cat tags the mouse, two new players are chosen to take over the roles.
