Jack Sprat

  • Indoors/outdoors
  • Equipment: None
  • Formation: Circle, in pairs

Have all the players except 'Jack Sprat' form pairs and stand in a circle. When Jack Sprat says, 'face to face', the partners face each other. When he says 'back to back', or 'side to side', his directions must be followed. If he says 'Jack Sprat', everyone, including himself tries for a new partner.

The one left becomes Jack Sprat and the game continues.
