HIDE AND SEEK One of the most popular traditional children’s game in Poland is HIDE AND SEEK. chowanego The rules of the game are as follows: one person is chosen to be a seeker and must look for the rest of the players in the group who hide in the set area and appointed time limit. The seeker counts up to a chosen number, e.g. 20 or 50. Children decide on a position to be home base. The person who is the seeker stands on the home base with his/her eyes closed and starts counting. When it's finished, he/she cries out "I'm seeking!" and begins to look for the other players. The hiders must be very quiet, and the first person who is found becomes the seeker in next turn unless they manage to run to the home base before the seeker saying loudly "One, two, three for me". Time is designated by counting by a seeker up to the chosen at the beginning of the game number, e.g. 20 or 50. That means that the player is better than the seeker and wins. The seeker should also announce finding others by saying “One, two, three (Ania)�. Hide and seek can be played at home, in the playground, in the park or forest.
