  1. (continued from previous page)
    "Frog Leaping" is played in this way:- Four or five boys go in a line and bend down their heads. The last one jumps each one of the rest. Then the next boy comes and jumps in the same way.
    "Hide and Seek", "following for the ring", "tig" and "frog leaping", are played in Summer time. Spring time is the time for pitching marbles and pegging tops. Winter is the time for setting cradle birds. Autumn is the time for picking blackberries.
