  1. Games I Play at Home.
    I play a lot of games. In the summer I play hide and seek.
    Some of us go to hide and the others look for us. Sometimes we play with a call. Then we have races and jumps and in the winter we play inside.
    We play Musical Chairs, Nuts in May and a lot of other games. We play card games, Ludo, and Snakes and Ladders. Some of them are very nice games.
    We have more fun in the Summer that in the Winter, except at Christmas time. We play with the games that we get at Christmas. In the Summer when the haycocks are in the fields we play around them and in the Spring we go round all the field looking for bird's nests.
