Description
Summary:statues [Children's game] "You all get together in somebody's meadow, or wherever there is grass. One person takes the rest of the crowd by the wrists or hands (individually of course) flings them round and round, and lets them go. As they fall on the grass they must stay the way they land without moving a muscle. In other words, like 'statues'. The person who does all the flinging, then goes around and looks at all the 'statues'. The one she likes best is the winner. Then the 'winnder' has her turn flinging everyone around . . .
