  2. The Games I Play

    Share Share Post
    The games I play are Tig, Hide and seek, skipping colours, Giant Steps, cricket, ball-beds and Ghost in the Garden. We amuse ourselves in Winter by telling stories, playing cards, draughts, Ludo, and snakes-and-ladders. When the ice is on the ground we have a good time sliding and when snow falls we also have a good time throwing snowballs.
    Spring is the season for skipping and Summer is the season for playing colours, Giant Steps, cricket and hide and seek.
    I play all these games with my companions in the evenings after school.
