Getting an error message when trying to download pygame

I am trying to download pygame and am getting an error. I am on a mac computer on OS X 10.11.6. I have an updated version of pip and have Xcode already installed.The error comes up when I type in pip3 install pygame. The error is below...

/usr/bin/clang -fno-strict-aliasing -Wsign-compare -fno-common -dynamic -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -g -DENABLE_NEWBUF=1 -I/NEED_INC_PATH_FIX -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/include/python3.5m -c src/scrap.c -o build/temp.macosx-10.6-intel-3.5/src/scrap.o src/scrap.c:27:10: fatal error: 'SDL.h' file not found #include "SDL.h" ^ 1 error generated. error: command '/usr/bin/clang' failed with exit status 1

Most sites say to run this in terminal: xcode-select --install which will install xcode tools.

As for installing pygame with python3 on mac, it can be tricky sometimes, so if running the above in terminal stops that error but brings up another un-xcode-related one, I would suggest going here or here if that link fails.
