Yes, I do remember that game ,there were many kids on our block that we had a great time , or what about the game red light ,green light?I have been reading the posts here with enjoyment.
Oh yes. 123 Redlight! 123 Greenlight! Loved that. Also loved Kick the Can- was my favorite-I believe we have previously discussed it in this thread. I loved just being outdoors as a kid. As many I believe have said earlier parents had to practically beg me to come in-much different than today. Riding bikes-catching lightning bugs-building treehouses-etc. Everything and anything outdoors.

I remember our first "Gocart" - we used parts from an old baby carriage...wood scraps that dad had laying around - it was actually pretty darn nice. Had a steering wheel and everything. Ahhh..the good old days : )

OH, Marko Polo, I couldn't remember the name, we played that while in our pool! When I lived at the shore, I never saw kids outside, so sad.We would go out in the morn, on weekends and HAVE TO be called in at night. I now live in Tn and my g-daughter (4yrs old)plays outside all the time!,riding bikes, chalk, teaching her hopscotch.The kids now a days are deprived.

Remember them? I still eat fluff-a-nutta sandwiches at age 43! I have a jar of fluff in my pantry : )) You know you can still get fluff for under a buck!
