    The games we play in summer are Hide -and -go-seek, Pull her away, Mary and her doll, See the robbers passing, Round the mulberry tree, High windows, and Colours.
    The way we play hide-and go-seek is this. One girl stands in the den while the rest run away to hide.
    When all are hidden she leaves the den and comes out to look for them. Whoever is caught first is the "tigger".
