NAME:

The firefly tag

Dino Dino and Grandpa are on the front porch, watching the fireflies blink in the dark yard.
– Did I ever tell you about the firefly tag? - Grandpa asks - We played that when I was little.
Dino shakes his head.
– It's for playing it in the dark. One person is the firefly and keeps a flashlight. He hides, counts quietly to 30 and then turns on the flashlight for a second. He can move or stand still, he chooses.

“Got it,” says Dino. He thinks fast.
– The other participants are in a group and count up to 20. So, they split up and start looking for the firefly – says Grandpa – when someone catches the Firefly, they become the new firefly – he explains.
– So, let's go! - Grandpa says. He gives Dino a flashlight and starts counting.
Dino runs to the vegetable garden and enters under the bean plant hut. Every time he counts to 30, he turns on the flashlight. But grandpa can't find him!
– Dino, I give up! You can come back! He screams.
And a very proud Dino answers:
- I won!
