Instructions

Translated to “stiff witch,” the game designates one child as the “witch,” who must freeze the other players by tagging them. Players only becomes unfrozen when another child crawls through their legs. The witch wins once all the players are "frozen".

If the witch wins, they choose another 'witch' who has not played that role yet.

Optional: Introduce the game with the story of The Snow Queen by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen, if you are learning about Scandinavia. It mentions Denmark, Norway and Finland. The players can then pretend they are being frozen by the Snow Queen.
