The mailman and the Minimoys

From 5 players – equipment: 1 envelop, one scarf or one handkerchief

  • Place all the Minimoys in circle, seated on the floor. Name a player who will stay outside of the circle: he is Arthur. Give him a scarf (handkerchief) which symbolises the letter of the mailman.
  • The kid runs or dances around the circle while reciting, if he wants to, the lyrics of a nursery rhyme.
  • Once the nursery rhyme is recited, the kid walks or skips around the Minimoys’ circle until he decides to “lose” the letter dropping it on the floor behind one of the kids’ back.
  • That kid leaps up and the two kids race in opposite direction to be the first to arrive at the empty spot and sit down. The kid who is left standing turns around the circle with the “letter” and the game starts again.
