  1. (continued from previous page)
    This game however I do not know how to play. They also amuse themselves when there is snow by throwing snowballs at one another and making snowmen. If there is frost in it however, there is even more fun. They make a long slide on the frozen road. Both boys and girls partake in this fun, and one would often feel sore after a series of falls often sustained in this game.
