LEAPFROG
Leapfrog is a children's game in which players
vault over each other's stooped backs. Games
of this sort have been called by this name since at
least the late sixteenth century.[1] They also played
this in colonial America.
The first participant rests hands on knees and bends
over, which is called giving a back. The next player
places hands on the first's back and leaps over by
straddling legs wide apart on each side. On landing
he stoops down and a third leaps over the first and
second, and the fourth over all others successively
. When all the players are stooping, the last in the line
begins leaping over all the others in turn. The number
of participants is not fixed.
The French version of this game is called
saute-mouton (literally "leapsheep"), and the
Romanian is called capra ("mounting rack" or "goat").
In India it is called as "Aar Ghodi Ki Par Ghodi"
(meaning "horseleap"). In Italy the game is called
"la cavallina" (i.e. "small or baby horse").
In the Korean and Japanese versions (ҹڱ lit.
"piledriving" and ةԯ ުȪ umatobi, lit.
"horseleap", respectively), one player 'leaps'
over the backs of the other players who stoop close
enough to form a continuous line, attempting to
cause the line to collapse under the weight of the riders.
