Duck Duck Goose

July 23, 2013 by staff 

Duck Duck Goose, Duck, Duck, Goose or Duck, Duck, Gray Duck is a traditional[where?] children’s game often first learned in pre-school or kindergarten[dead link] then later adapted on the playground for early elementary students. The object of this game is to walk in a circle, tapping on each child’s head until one is finally chosen to be the new picker.

A group of players sit in a circle, facing inward, while another player, the “picker” (a.k.a. the “fox”), (some young children call the “picker” the “ducker”) walks around tapping or pointing to each player in turn, calling each a “duck” until finally picking one to be a “goose” The “goose” then rises and chases and tries to tag the “picker”, while the “picker” tries to return to and sit where the “goose” had been sitting. If the picker succeeds, the “goose” is now the new picker and the process begins again. If the “goose” succeeds in tagging the picker, the “goose” may return to sit in the previous spot and the “picker” resumes the process. With older players, the “goose” may attempt to tackle the “picker”.
