    and a boy would stand in the middle of that ring, and he would throw a ball to one of the other boys, and the boy that would strike the ball, would run around while the other boy would be trying for the ball.
    Hide-and-go-seek is played by one boy hiding, and when he is ready he would call the rest, and they would try for him, and when he would be caught, the others should go hiding then.
    Hunts-and-tips is an other game I play. It is played by one boy running after the others, and he tries to fetch one of them, and the person that he fetches must run after the others then.
    We also make Snow-men, and throw snowballs, and we also go skating on the ice.
