- Games I Play 14 - 11 - '38
There are several games which I play. Here are some of them.
1. "Hide and go seek." This game can be played by two or more. One goes to hide and the other goes to look for her. If the one who hides is in the den before the seeker she can go hide again but if the seeker is in the den before the person who hides he has no hide.
2 "High Gates" this game is played by a number of children who catch hands together in a ring. One of them is let out and whoever he strikes has to follow him. The rest hold up their arms so that the others can pass out under their arms When the person is caught he gets in and it is the other person's turn to strike someone.
2 "Frog in the middle." Some children catch hands in a ring. One gets in the middle and shuts his eyes and the others run around him. He catches one and guesses his name. Then whoever he catches gets into the middle of the ring.(continues on next page)- Collector
