with notation!

Lets Add the Game!

1.  Sit down in a circle. 2.  Player 1 is the pumpkin man, and

player 2 is the goblin. 3.  The Pumpkin Man sits in the center

and everyone but the goblin closes their eyes, while the goblin hides the object in the pumpkin patch (with someone in the circle).

4.  At the end of the song, no one can talk, and opens their eyes.

5.  The pumpkin man gets three guesses as to who has the object.

6.  If they guess right, they trade places, if not, the person with the object becomes the next goblin, and the pumpkin man remains.
