  1. The Games I Play

    Share Share Post
    The games I play are jack-stones, see-saw, In and Out goes Dusty blue-bells, caching hide and seek, and sliding. The game I like the best is sliding. It is seldom we can have a slide as the ground is not always suitable for it. The way we play jack-stones is we get five stones and each one plays in turn and whoever gets finished the first gets the game. For see-saw we get two benches and we put one on top of the other and a child sits on each side of the top bench and the bench swings up and down.
