Under hökens vingar kom! (Come under
the wings of the hawk!)
How it works
One child plays the hawk. He or she lifts both
arms and shouts: "Come under the wings of
the hawk." The other children are behind
a start line a bit further away and ask: "What
colour?" The hawk calls out a colour, e.g.
red. All children who are wearing something red
can now run to the hawk. The others have to try
to run past the hawk without being caught by it.
The last child to be caught becomes the next hawk.
