Bate, bate (Adivina quien te dio)

Bate, bate

Salamón Bivas (Thessaloniki)


This is a game very popular among Sephardim from Thessaloniki. One child hides his face. While another one hits him, the leader of the game calls him with nickname agreed upon beforehand (in this version, cuba de agua, “water barrel”). The first child must guess who hit him.
