RHYMES.
This game is one that even very young children can understand. One of the company thinks of a word rhyming with another word which he mentions. The aim of the party then is to guess what the word thought of can be. The rule is that no one should give a name to what they guess, but describe it instead, and each of the company in turn is entitled to a question. Should the word thought of be "bag," rhyming with "rag," the questions must be put thus:—
"Is it a necessary part of a boot-lace?"
"No, it is not a tag."
"Is it the name of a horse?"
"No, it is not a nag."
