Queenie
I don't remember all details and this was played in playground by girls (from aged 5 to 8 I was one of a handful of boys at a girls convent school).
"It" role was known as Queenie and game involved her throwing tennis ball backwards over her shoulder where one of the other players caught it and hid it behind their back then all lined up and chanted: "Queenie, Queeenie, who's got the ball is she short or is she tall (there may have been more. She would nominate somebody to turn around or do various actions to reveal if they had the ball, the best bit was when that person sometimes threw the ball up in the air from behind their back and mayhem broke out... I don't remember more
