How to stop Children squabbling: Eeni, Meeni, Miny, Mo

Children aged 2 to about 6 are notorious for disagreeing over anything from toys to drinks. At this age their social skills are still developing and they often need ideas on how to settle disputes fairly. The rhyme Eeni, Meenie, Minee, Mo is one such way. Because the original rhyme is now politically incorrect, I have included below my own version:

Eeni, Meeni, Miny, Mo

Find a camel in the snow

If it skids duck down low

 Eeni, Meeni, Miny, Mo

Do you have an alternative Eeni, Meeni, Miny, Mo rhyme?

    In response to your eni meani mini mo rhyme - My daughters grew up with something that ‘flows’ a little bit better:
    eni meani mini mo
    catch a tiger by the toe
    if he hollers let him go
    eni meani mini mo
