Gol tabat (Say tabat) is a simple game that complements the innocence and agility of children. The game starts by one of the children asking a preprepared question to one of the other players. The child asking the question gives the player a period of time to answer the question. If they are unable to answer, the child asking the question says,

“Gol tabat,” meaning that the player was unable to answer. The child asking the question then proceeds to answer the question. If the player says, “Gol Jeej”, the child asking the question is also required to answer the question.1 2
