HOW TO PLAY
1

One player is chosen as the wolf and stands in a marked den at one end of the playing area, while everyone else gathers at the opposite end as the geese.

2

A caller leads a short rhyming call-and-response exchange with the geese, ending with a signal for the geese to fly across the field to the other side.

3

As the geese run across, the wolf leaves the den and tries to tag as many geese as possible before they reach safety.

4

A tagged goose sits out for that round or joins the wolf's den to help catch others, depending on the group's preference.

5

Remaining geese line up again at the safe side and the exchange repeats until only a few geese remain, with the last one caught becoming the next wolf.
