  1. Games I play
    The games I play are foot-ball, hide-and-go-seek, tig, table tennis, ludo and marbles.
    In Spring I play marbles or tig and in Summer, when we have our school holidays, I have great fun playing hide-and-go-seek round the cocks of hay or tumbling in it.
    In Autumn I enjoy picking blackberries or kicking foot-ball and in Winter on the cold nights I play table tennis or ludo. If there is snow we all make a snow-man or throw snow-balls at each other. If there is ice we pass the time sliding on it.
