PASS THE ORANGE: Arrange for teams of about 8 to stand in a line, one behind the other (arranged boy, girl, boy,...). Give each team an orange which the first person should tuck under his chin. This should be passed to the person behind. When the orange gets to the last person, they come to the front of the line and start again. The winning team is the first one which gets their starting person to the front again.
This is a fun game to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.
"The miller's dog lay at the mill,
And his name was little Mayo,
M with an A, A with a Y, Y with an O,
His name was little Mayo.
"The miller he bought some peppermint,
And he called it right good Stingo,
S with a T, T with an I, I with an N, N with a G, G with an O,
He called it right good Stingo."
One child represents the miller, the rest stand round him in a circle, and all dance round and sing the verses. When it comes to the spelling part of the rhyme, the miller points to a child, who must call out the right letter.
Any one who makes a mistake must pay a forfeit. The winner of the game should be a player with no forfeits and they receive a party favor or prize of some sort.
This is a game that can be played on Cinco de Mayo. For this game, no one is allowed to smile or laugh. All the players, except one, sit in a row or half circle; one goes out of the room and returns with a stick or poker in his hand, and a very grave and solemn face. He is supposed to have just returned from a visit to Buff Cinco de mayo. The first player asks him: "Where do you come from?" "From Buff on Cinco de Mayo." The next asks: "Did he say anything to you?" To which the reply is:
"Buff said 'Baff,'
And gave me this staff,
Telling me neither to smile nor to laugh.
Buff says 'Baff,' to all his men,
And I say 'Baff' to you again.
And he neither laughs nor smiles,
In spite of all your cunning wiles,
But carries his face with a very good grace,
And passes his staff to the very next place."
If he can repeat all this without laughing, he delivers up his staff to some one else, and takes his seat; but if he laughs, or even smiles, he pays a forfeit before giving it up. This game can hold many different holiday themes. The winner of this game should receive a party favor or prize for their ability to not get tongue twisted on Cinco de Mayo.
