Jump Over the Fire
Players gather near the fire,
bring firewood (sticks and branches), and make the fire. Children stay
in 10 metres from the fire. When the signal is given players one by one
jump over the fire. Everybody tries not to move fire woods. Game's rules:
Jump only one by one. Don't move the fire on purpose. One loses who doesn't
jump.

Kimak
We must stretch a string
and hang on it the other string of different length with some knick-knacks,
some little presents. It can be eraser, pen, market, sweets, crumpled piece
of paper for joke, etc. One of the players ties up his eyes, take a scissors
and then he has to cut one of these hanging things. If he failed, he will
lose the game, without repeated attempt. But if he succeeds to cut the
chosen string, he will leave the present for himself and try again. It
is a very funny game.
