Title
Re tswa kwa Tlhabane (We come from Rustenburg)
Description / content note
"We come from Tlhabana (Rusternburg). We sell goods. Do you want to buy them? Do you want to bargain for them?" (Girls say to the baby) "Keep quiet, darling, who is going to nurse you? Your mother is stingy, she is too mean to give you a nurse." (Mother says) "Sister, what are you doing? Why don't you comfort the child? Quiet, quiet baby! Quiet, quiet, son of my beloved." This amusing little game began with the girls crouching in a circle, singing and beating the ground with their hands. Then one of them outside the circle pretended to cry like a baby, and another girl put her on her back and began to sing to quiet her. Finally, another girl, pretending to be mother, took the child and sang a lullaby to her. Children's game and sketch.
