This game originated from the Biokovo region in Croatia
pipavice pipa odmora domora tare tarezija cokac bokac navojsku pipipipipipipipipipipipi
This game is played with five fingers on each hand – each finger
had a name corresponding to each word and the last finger, the small one
has the highpitched sound of pipipipippipipipipi. Apparently the words themselves
are nonsensical and have no real meaning, The fun of the games is in the
sounds of the words and the rhyming nature – it is meant to be said
very quickly so that the words run over the top of each other

Two kids sing the following whilst making playing a clapping game: A sailor went to sea, sea, sea, to see what he could see, see, see to see what he could see see see but all that he could see, see, see was the bottom of the deep blue sea, sea, sea. Every time the word 'see or sea' is sung each kid salutes (3 times)
