Little Tommy Tittlemouse

Players stand in a circle. One child is chosen to be Little Tommy Tittlemouse and he or she crouches in the middle, with hands over eyes. The others join hands and walk around in a circle, chanting or singing the rhyme below.

After the line “someone’s calling…” the teacher points to someone in the circle. That child goes quietly to ‘Tommy Tittlemouse’, gently taps him on the shoulder and says “It is I,” trying to disguise his voice. ‘Tommy Tittlemouse’ must guess who is calling before opening his eyes. If he’s right, that child has a turn next. If he’s wrong he must do it again.
