I remember the bumper car one!

Bumper Car Bumper car number 9

went round the cccccoooorrrrnnnneeerrr (run round the people with the skipping ropes and then jump back in)

slammed on the brakes

police man came

put him in jail

how many bottles of ginger ale

1,2,3,4......

I haven't got any "single" ones, but I have one where there were two of you

One starts skipping on their own and sings "i like coffee, I like tea, I'd like you to join in with me", then the other one starts skipiing with them, and then the first person says "I don't like coffee, I don't like tea, I don't want you in with me" and the 2nd person stops

Maid in the kitchen, doing a bit of stichen,

along came a bogey man and kicked her out

Vote, vote, vote for <name of person>

who's that knocking on the door

if it's <name of person whose turn it is next> let them in and we'll sit them on the bin

and we won't vote for <previous person> anymore.

This one works where 1st person is skipping until they get kicked out and new person comes in!

I'm so glad you asked this, I've been searching for some for Fitbods.

We used to shout "lipstick, powerpuff" and you could jump in on "lip" and "powder" and out on "stick" and "puff".

I can't remember any of the others which is so silly because we knew loads!

There are some here
