    The games that I usually play are marbles :conquer flogging tops : hide and go seek pitch and toss:and cock-shot.
    There are two different games which I can play with marbles ,one is trying to put them into holes made in the ground.The game is called "nine holes".The other game is played by making a round ring on the ground with chalk then putting one marble in the ring and then each player takes his turn and trys to hit the marble in the ring with another one.
