Two students create a house by taking hands. One student stands between them, inside the house.
Sing the song. At the word, “out,” the two players lift their hands and the student in the house steps out.
In the second half of the song (swing a lady uptum), the players inside the houses run to switch houses. Students may not go to the same house twice.
For an added challenge, take away one house so there is always a student in the middle trying to “steal” a house.
