Little Birds

Origin

This is a game from Latvia, and is one of our favourites. It was found on the following website.

What You'll Need

Lots of people to play (more than 6)	1 hula hoop for each player

How to Play

To play, spread all of the hula hoops out on the floor. Each player should stand in the centre of a hula hoop. Someone not playing should shout:
"Every little bird should move in another nest!"
At this signal, one of the hula hoops should be removed and all the birds must change their nests. The bird without a nest is out and so will then shout out:
"Every little bird should move in another nest", removing one of the remaining hula hoops. The game goes on until there is only one remaining bird, who is then the winner. Can you think of a game played in Nottingham that is similar to this game?
