28 INTERESTING GAMES TO PLAY AT HOME-GAME-17

 GAME 17


On the Seventeenth Day of the campaign #WRITEAPAGEADAY, “KOLAI KOLAIYAA MUNDHIRIKKAA” an ancient game fondly played by children will be presented in detail. It is a highly popular and widely played game in schools and at home in villages. Both girls and boys participate and have a great fun time.

At first basic requirements of the game:

Number of persons:  Minimum 10

Preferred age group: Above the age of 10 

Duration of the play: Minimum half an hour

Best time to play: Evenings or at nights

Place to play: on the floor

Things required to play:  a hand towel

How to play:  with the toss, the game starts and all the players sit in a circle facing each other except the one who is out in the toss. He/she will be standing out and will run around the circle with the hand towel as the game begins,  








The runner will be sing:                                       “Kolai kolaiyaa mundhirikkaa”

Then, in response to him, players sitting will sing:  “Niraiya niraiya sutthi vaa”

                                                            Runner:   Kollai adicchavanai kandup pidi”

                                                            Players:   “Enge”

                                                            Runner:  “Veettukkulle”

After the song ends the runner will leave the hand towel behind one of the player sitting in the circle. If he/she fails to notice the towel, the runner will slap his/her back and initiates him to run and he/she will occupy his place in the circle.

If he/she notices the hand towel behind him/her, he/she should take it and run behind the runner and should touch him/her to make him/her out. Then he/she will be out of the game. Again the same procedure is followed and the game continues till 5 players are out. Not only running and catching the player, but all should sing their lines of the song properly in order to be not out.

Reference to this game:  Reference to this game can be found in the films where this game is played by school or college students when out for a tour or picnic.
