What's the time, Mr Wolf? is a form of tag played in the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and the English-speaking Caribbean. In the United States it may be called "What time is it, Mr Fox?" .
It bears some resemblance to Red light, green light and Dahrumasan ga koronda.
I've no idea why this game works, but it does - kids find it exciting and fun!
