Knock, knock, Ginger (in Canada), Knick-knock nanny/knock-down Ginger (in England), ding-dong ditch (in the United States), chappy (in Scotland), Knick-Nacking (in Ireland), bobby knock (in Wales)[citation needed], ding dong dash (in Australia)[citation needed], or pinpon dash (in Japan)[citation needed], sometimes referred to as "knick-knocking", is a game played by children in many cultures. It involves knocking on the front door of (or ringing the doorbell of) a victim, then running away before the door can be answered. The game has been played since the 19th century.[1]

    It is called "Klingelpütz" or "Klingelstreich" or "Schellekloppe" or "Schellemännchen"/ "Klingelmännchen" in Germany and "belletje trekken" in Flanders (Belgium) and The Netherlands.[citation needed]
