Maybe this title is too much for this thread, but today I got stung by a bee. LOL.
I haven't had a bee sting since I was like 10. It made me think of the time we used to play games on the block and in the street:
Hide and Go Seek
The Devil and the Egg
Catch a girl freak a girl (LOL)
Curb Ball
Hot Bread and Butter...
I can go on and on
What were some of your favorite games you played when you were a pup?
We were playing curb ball, too, and some other game I can't think the name of in English even though I encountered it once somewhere... You draw figures with chalk on the ground and throw something and then skip/jump... Well, I'm definitely missing this kind of vocabulary... We were also jumping a rope. Of course, we girls loved to make clothes for the dolls and style their hair.
When my family moved to a new place, it was still very underdeveloped around, so we spent a lot of time in the mud like oinkers. It wasn't just mud, though. There was clay, too, and we made various things out of clay and were setting up different shops. Played teaching as well. At my grandpa's there were many poppies and we made dolls out of them... hundreds and hundreds of the same dolls... we were easily entertained.
Crap, the saddest part is I can't think of the name of the game in ANY language... :-(

Not sure if you meant hopscotch but you just brought that back to mind for me.
