Excerpt from Song-Roundels and Games

During a number of years educators in all parts of our country have endeavored to make games more popular, and to some extent good results have been obtained. Games are played by children as well as adults in the numerous private and public gymnasiums and on the play grounds which city and school authorities have provided for the general public.

In these gymnasiums and play grounds one finds children of various physical conditions, some strong and some weak, and it therefore follows that when games are played without system and supervision, the strong eventually become the main participants and the benefits which should be shared equally by all are reaped by the strong alone.

It is, therefore, apparent that some one is needed to supervise, guide, and introduce games, and to do this he must be interested in the work, must understand the games, and must have played them himself.

And it is as a guide to these instructors that I have conceived the idea of arranging and composing the games found in this little book.

The games herein contained are song-games, roundels (Reigen), accompanied with vocal music, class, competitive, and antagonistic games. Some of the songs I translated from the German, others are original, but all are written to well known melodies. To some extent the games are graded, but, on the whole, I have left it to the judgment of the instructor to select those suitable for his purpose.

This book certainly makes no pretence of exhausting the category of games and roundels, yet I hope it will find friends among educators and serve the authors purpose, that of popularizing the systematic playing of games.

I here take the opportunity of thanking all my friends and colleagues, especially Carl A. Cobelli, for the kind assistance they have given me in arranging these games.
