The Language of Animals,

A game called ''The Language OF
Animals" is so well liked by a family
Of small children Of my acquaintance
that 1t is recommended to those who
seek to entertain other small child
rem. Each child chooses the name OF
an animal, and in turn describes its
feelings and actions, the others guess
the name from the description. For
instance, the ant says, II live In a hill
l sometimes get into sugar and cake
and make them taste very bad" The
cat says, II wash my face many times
a day. I like cream and catch mice"
