The game is often used as a selection method. (In this case for hide and seek, who is "it"). In chorus they say "sig - sag - sug" and move to "sug" one foot out or let him stand. Who’s foot stands alone, in or out, will be elected and is "it".
I’m sure this game is not only played here in Switzerland, but I have no idea of a name in English.
Not sure I have seen this game here, but then again, I did not grow up in this country, so it is all foreign to me as far as childhood games go! But, they do play something called Rock, Paper, Scissors for elimination purposes, and I still don't quite get that!!
Cool capture Mona, I like the selective colour and slight movement too. I'm not sure about the game either, but wonder if you participated in the hide & seek part? :)
Love the SC, and this is a fab shot, but also fav'ing because of the story behind it. I love that selection process. We all grew up with different ways to see who was gonna be 'it' (or 'not it') but this is a very neat way to do it...
