125. The Teacher of Gymnastics.
[Note:—One of the children is the "teacher" in the centre of the circle. He shows some simple motion,— such as clapping the hands, swinging the arms, waving a flag, grinding the corn, etc. All then imitate the movement, singing the air once to the syllable "la." The child at the centre then beckons to another child who takes the place of the "teacher."
The game may be played at the tables as a ball song, or in connection with the second gift. Each child in torn shows some movement with a ball or a second gift form, which the others imitate while singing the air once.]
126. Equal Measure.*
Arr. by. B. E. H.
[Note:—Two concentric circles are formed. During the singing of the words, they march in opposite di­rections, holding hands. At the syllables, "La la" etc., they skip. It is well to place the smaller children in the inner ring. At the repetition of the song, the circles change direction. The game should be played only once.]
