This is in reply to Victoria Linchong’s message on

I played a game like that a few times in elementary school. I don’t remember any “Eenie”, but I don’t remember it all, either. Here’s what I do remember:

…And the bullfrogs jump from bank to bank.
eep, op, eep op op,
Skiddle, diddle, ker-PLOP!

The person who was supposed to get hit on plop had to try to make the person slapping their hand miss. They stayed in if they made the other person miss. Otherwise they were out.
