Clapping games are rhythmic activities often played by children, where participants clap their hands in sync with a chant or song. These games can involve simple patterns or more complex sequences, and they often encourage coordination and teamwork. Clapping games are popular in many cultures and can be played alone or in groups. Typically, players stand facing each other and follow a set of movements while reciting lyrics. Some well-known examples include Miss Mary Mack and Pat-a-cake. These games not only provide entertainment but also help develop motor skills and social interaction among children.
