A game for rural children from the Sieradz region, suitable for children’s gardens and elementary schools. The children stand in a line as “ganders”; one of them walks around the line, asking:— Ganders, why aren’t you eating? — Because we’re afraid. — Of what? — The wolf. — Where is he? — Beyond the mountains. — What’s he doing? — Plucking a goose. — Which one? — The saddled one. After these words, the children scatter, and the one who does not return to their place in the line must walk around, asking the questions.
