  2. Games I Play

    Share Share Post
    I play many games at home and many at school. I play "rounders" "hide and seed," "tig", "ring a ring a rosy", "fool in the middle", "high windows", "see this pretty little girl of mine". in school in good weather. I play "snakes and ladders" "draughs", "ludo", and cards in the winter when the weather is bad.
    Hide and seek is a very nice game and it takes a good many to play it. It takes two children, one to be the mother and the other the killer. They go and hide and when hidden they shout to let the catcher know they are hidden
