Get everyone to stand in a circle with the person playing the CAT at one end and the person playing the MOUSE at the other end. Everyone in the circle holds hands and puts them up to form arches around the circle. _x000D_
Everyone in the circle sings the rhyme:_x000D_
“What time is it?”_x000D_
“Just struck nine.”_x000D_
“Is the cat at home?”_x000D_
“He’s about to dine.”_x000D_
At the end of the song the CAT starts to chase the MOUSE, both weaving in and out of the arches. The rule is that the CAT has to follow the MOUSES path. When the CAT catches the MOUSE he can pretend to eat him for fun, before two more children take a turn.
