Farmer's tag

  • The farmer is a ticker and a cow is a runner.
  • The game starts, the first farmer gets off the bench and hits a mat or drum and shouts I AM THE BOER!!!
  • Now all the cows know who the ticker is.
  • The object of the game is for the farmer to catch a cow.
  • The farmer does this by ticking off a cow.
  • Did the farmer tap a cow?
  • Then the farmer also becomes a cow and the one who has been tapped must sit on the bench.
  • So there is a new ticker every time.
  • On the bench is a pass-through system.
  • This means that the pupil who sits on the bench the longest, may return to the field when someone is finished.
