Fisherman, fisherman, say which flag is
up today
How to play
One child is the 'fisherman'.
The other children stand opposite him or her and
shout: "Fisherman, fisherman, say which flag
is up today!"
The fisherman then tells them the colour of the
flag, e.g. "The blue one!"
All children wearing something blue are allowed
to run over to the fisherman. The others have
to watch out - the fisherman is trying to catch
them!
Known elsewhere as:
In Sweden, the game is called "Under hökens
vingar kom!", which means: "Come under
the wings of the hawk!" Swedish children
play it in exactly the same way. In each round,
the hawk calls out the colour that is allowed
to come under his wings.
