Origin

Rock Brock Stones is a game that children in Jamaica play. We were taught this game by Rudi, a youth worker in Nottingham who was born in Jamaica.

How to play

Players have a stone each and they pass them round the circle while they sing a song.

Go down to Emmanuel Road,
Girls and boys to break rock stones.
Break them one by one girls and boys,
Break them two by two girls and boys.,
Break them three by three girls and boys

Gu doung a manual road
Gal aaa bauy fi go bruk rok stone
Bruk dem one by one gal aaa bouy
Bruk dem two by two gal aaa bouy
Bruk dem three by three gal aaa bouy

When the song stops, the person with the most stones is out, because that person is too slow passing their stones around.
