Cambios

Four players go to their respective corners and a fifth one, the payer who is “it”, tries to get to one of the corners when the others change places. More players can take part, provided that the number of corners is one smaller than the number of people playing.

The name of the game is from the object that the players use. The girls sit in a circle on the floor. One of them is the ''ama ''(“it) and walks around the outside singing a song, which to a certain extent controls the game, with the handkerchief hidden and then quietly drops it behind one of them. When that player realises she has it, she grabs and runs after the ''ama.'' If she manages to tag her with the handkerchief, she wins and returns to her place, but if the'' ama ''gets back to the gap first without being caught, the other becomes “it”.
