Commander

Posted March 30 2011

Commander is one of many names for a traditional children’s game. First, a person is chosen to be the commander. This person then turns his back to everyone. As he or her counts one, two, three, everyone moves closer to the commander. After the commander finishes counting, he or she turns and looks at everyone. Nobody is allowed to move at that time. If somebody moves, the commander can point to that person and he is out. If someone is able to reach and touch the commander, he wins the game.
