How to Play

Arrange all the players except one in a double circle, facing in. The inside players are trees and they raise both hands up in front. The outside players stand directly behind the trees. The odd player is the Fire Warden and takes his place in the centre. The fire warden says, 'Fire in the Mountain, Run, Run, Run' and claps his hands. The players in the outside circle begin running to the left. Suddenly the Fire Warden stops clapping and shout 'Go Home', and dashes in front of a tree and the runners do like wise. The runner who fails to find a tree becomes Fire Warden.
