TAPPY ON THE ICE BOX

SOMEONE WOULD STAND WITH HIS HANDS COVERING HIS EYES
AND SAY: "DRAW A CIRCLE ON MY BACK AND SOMEBODY
PUNCH!" THEN SOMEBODY WOULD HIT HIM IN THE BACK
AND HE WOULD TURN AROUND AND ASK ONE OF THE CHILDREN
IN THE CIRCLE "WAS IT YOU?" IT WAS REPEATED
TIL HE GUESSED THE RIGHT ONE WHO THEN BECAME "IT."
