HOW TO PLAY
1

Players sit or stand in a circle facing inward while one player, the 'stork,' walks around the outside carrying the cap.

2

The group sings a traditional verse about the stork losing its cap while the stork circles behind them.

3

At some point during the song the stork quietly drops the cap behind one player without anyone else noticing.

4

If that player realizes the cap is behind them before the stork completes a full lap, they snatch it up and chase the stork around the circle to tag them.

5

If the stork makes it all the way around and sits in the open spot before being tagged, the player who missed the cap becomes the new stork.
