The simplest things are always best, and here’s a genius idea from one of our Swedish readers.

Instead of using “Mingle” in the mingle game, which isn’t the most useful piece of English in the world, simply change the chant to:

Walking walking walking walking (The kids are walking around)

Jumping jumping jumping jumping (The kids are jumping)

Running running running running (guess..)

Then STOP!

Simple and brilliant, just the sort of idea I like to hear!Β  Thanks.
