  1. Games I Play

    Share Share Post
    The games I play are Hiding go seek, and Blind man's buff.
    When the blackberrie season comes we go picking them and we make [?] and jam of them. All the boys play foot ball and hurling.
    In winter the children go in to one house and they tell story, dance, sing, and play other games and they play cards also. They amuse themselves in different ways and they enjoy themselves also.
