How To Play
1 player is chosen to be the mother of father. They will stand at the opposite end of the other players. The players each take a turn asking “Mother May I ____________”. Then the mother either grants or denies that request and so on. If permission is granted then the player advances. For example, the player says, “Mother, may I take 6 baby steps forward?”. Mother responds with, “yes you may or no you may not”.
The players MUST use Mother May I before their request. If they do not the player must go all the way back to the start line.
You can use all kinds of different steps, jumps, skips, hops, etc. But always include the number of each you want to do.
The player that reaches mother first wins the round and they get to be mother in the next game.
