    for marbles. Two boys put two marbles each on the ground. Then they go back a yard from them and one by one they throw a "glasser" and if they hit any of them they can keep them.
    In summer they play "Hide and seek". One of them say a ryme as "Pig snout walk out" or "Ink a pink a polly my father bought a dolly, dolly died, father cried, ink a pink a polly". whoever is tipped at the last word will blind and the rest will hide. The one that is blinding will then look for the others and the last to be caught will do the same.
