Favorite Games We Used To Play When We Were Still So Very Young!

Oh yes I remember all those games. Do you remember red light green light? Or how about red rover come over?LOL And there was always hopscotch.

Only one game comes to mind... Super Mario / Mario Brothers. The game console those days are with antenna and the joystick are very basic. Instead of CDs, there used to be cartridges. Until now, it is still the best game for me. Super Mario and Luigi forever! :)

Let me see. Hide & seek was very poluar. As we got older we were allowed up the street to play hide & seek. We also loved to play cricket on the front roadf. Then there was Monopoly. Yes, we played Cowboys & Indians too.

This discussion is so cool, that I had to read ALL the responses first! In addition to all mentioned above, we had talent shows (we used the old abandoned chicken coop), and put together puzzles. We also had a mini pool table that gave us hours of fun. We played poker, we all had our own penny jars. Card games called screw your neighbor, uno, and skipbo. We also played a game called spoons.

We played tetherball,monkey in the middle,jacks,dodgeball,ping pong,baseball,horse shoes,bsdmitten.basketball,keepaway.chase,rode our bikes,board games,built houses of cards,built trails of dominoes.lots of stuff to keep us busy.Baseball was my favorite because all the neighborhood kids came down to our house to play. We had the biggest back yard.

Atri games is what i playesd alot when i was growing up. I think was in teens or so when they come out. Those were so cool. I also loved donkey kong. the first one with climbing the ladders and stuff. I dont see that anymore though.

We would have a great neighbourhood game of hide and seek. That was lots of fun. At school we played Red Rover, Dodgeball, hopscotch. We also played badminton, tennis, ping pong and rode our bikes around the neighbourhood. We used to hang sheets on the clothes line on our back porch to separate it into rooms so we could play house. In the fall we swept all the leaves up into a pile and then broke them down into rows used as walls for our house. We played house a lot... and school. I was ALWAYS the teacher because I was the oldest kid on the street.

Okay i loved natari frogger and nintindo mario brothers original i loved duck duck goose and all they was my favorite. i loved field day in elementary scholl and all.i mean we had such a good time or red rover red rover . i played alot of outside games and all imean they was so much fun and now i show my daughter how to play them games and she loves them too im sure they still have them games in school if not i am going to my daughters school when she goes to show the pe teachers and all.

We played hide and seek a lot, but indoors we would pull out Candy Land and have a field day. Oh, and who didn't have a Barrel of Monkeys? LOL

Hi faith210 When I was young I played many games .. I played home - home, video games, chess, caram - board, ludo, badminton, business, antakshari, kho - kho, kabbaddi, volleyball, gallery .. oh and the list is simply increasing with no ending .. actually I forgot the names of many other games which I played when I was young. Those were really great days of my lifetime.

Gret Discussion. One of my favorite memories is playing plain nitendo with my mom. She used to sit and play for hours with us kids. Some of our favorite games to play together were.....tetris, yoshi, Super Mario Bros 3, Zelda, Mega Man and Dr Mario. We used to take turns playing. I love my mom. Hehehe. When we got our sega she used to play Dr Robotniks bean machine with us alot. We had tons of fun!!!!

Anyone remember duck duck goose? That was one of my favorites, or freeze tag was always good too.

Yeah I like to play hide and seek too and I remeber I never wanted seek, i always wanted only hide.Hehe, i was pretty bad kid.Also I love to play Marion, it was computer games and then I think it was called prehistoric.It was pretty good too.

Centipede!!!

When I was growing up, I used to play cricket a lot. Apart from that, me and my friends and cousins also used to play hide and seek, Ludo, Snakes and Ledders, Monopoly etc.

Well, I've always loved video games, since my uncle got us a nintendo, when I was around 10. But video games are hardly a group activity. I guess in school and with my friends, I loved to play tag. I still play hide and seek sometimes with my little cousins. And who could forget good old "simon says", that was like the funnest game especially if it were large groups.

My favorite electronic game was my Nintendo. I loved playing Super Mario Brothers and Paperboy. I loved board games. Some of my favorites were Candyland, Mouse Trap, and Sorry!.

i played how many steps before the queen, chinese jump rope which was a huge rubber band held by two people and i would use it one foot in and out etc., hop scotch, red light green light, tag, jump rope, board games like monopoly, mystery date, candyland, checkers, we didn't have atari games in the late 50s 60s or computers i didn't have a favorite i liked them all

Super Mario, thats the game i played growing up.... heheh

Just found your thread, but thought I would add a few games. As far as video games I loved Donkey Kong. Outside we played kickball, flag football, skateboarded, roller skated, sledding, nighttime hide & seek (flashlight tag), and a lot more. One of things we were probably crazy to do, but loved doing it was tree races. Behind my neighborhood we had some dense woods. We would start at one end of the trees, climb one and go limb to limb, tree to tree and see who could go the furthest without touching the ground.
