There are numerous variations of this game around the world, like the “Drip, Drip, Drop“, where the picker drips a small amount of water on each person’s head instead of tapping them, or the “Daisy in the Dell”where the picker outside the circle says “Daisy in the dell, I don’t pick you … I do pick you“.
Duck Duck Goose Game Instructions
- A group of players sit in a circle, facing inward.
- One of them (who is called the “it”), walks around tapping or pointing to each player in turn, calling each one a “duck”, until finally calls one a “goose“.
- The “goose” then stands up and starts to chase the “it” player.
- The “it” tries to return to and sit where the goose had been sitting before.
- If the chasee (the person chased) succeeds, the chaser becomes the chasee and the process begins again.
- If the chaser tags the chasee, the chaser may return to their previous spot and the original chasee restarts the process.
