Hello veejay19! Oh, you made me miss my childhood because of this discussion. When I was still in elementary I used to play chinese garter and skipping rope. I was in good in playing those games. My classmates even want me to be in their group but then now, it's too hard anymore. I can't even jump and I easily got tired. Oh, I miss those times..

I really like playing "hide & seek" with my friend, "bente uno", "pepsi 7-up", "piko", "taya-tayaan", "bahay-bahayan" ... those games were popular in every kids here in Philippines. Oh, I forgot also the "Nanay Tatay" hand games...hehe.

There are so many games we used to play..like "patintero" explaining what are those will take time..but ok i will hahaa there must be two set of teams..and of course there would be defense and offense..one team will guard and the other team must pass through with the other team and there are lines where they should stay and should not cross..quite complicated to explain here but easier if visually shown lol.. one game would be "langit at lupa" or in english " sky and earth!" lol it sounds funny but it is fun to play and tiring. It is a very energetic games which requires running and running and running and jumping. haha one is "IT" and chases other teams players..and the IT was able to touch someone who is not on top of somthing he is the next IT! For example. A is the IT and she must chase her other players B, C and D...but is B is on top of a chair or a table or a sofa or a cabinet lol player B cannot be touched...but if B is on the floor or earth and A was able to touch him..B is the next IT! hahah it is a very tiring game!!!lol but it is funny.... There are still so many games that we use to play..and i miss playing them!

When I was a child, we had no pc, or other power games. The only game for us is the table tennis. After school, just set two desks, and start playing in the classroom. The outdoor game for girls is the rope, and the rubber string games. Two persons hold at two ends, and we took turns to jump in and out. That was a lot of fun. Seems kids of today will also find fun in these traditional games. Why only the tv and computer?

We played lots of games especially at school as we always had a big play yard. At school there was tetherball, dodgeball, basketball, handball, fist ball, softball, hop scotch, jump rope, swings, bars and monkey bars, volleyball, marbles, tag, hide and seek and a lot more. When we were home and playing with the neighborhood kids we would get a bit more inventive when we weren't playing a "ball" game. Cowboys and Indians, secret agent, running down the street for no apparent reason screaming looking like complete idiots that needed to be put in an asylum! Dolls, race cars, bike races and the list could go on forever! I must say your "lagori" sounds interesting, I've never heard anything like it! ;)

I remember playing: four square, dodge ball, wagon wheel, tetherball, and smear the queer

Hide and seek, Jump rope, ring around the rosie don't think thats how you spell it lol, chutes and ladders, etc.

dodgeball, marco polo, tag, red rover, red light green light, the farmer in the dell, etc. i cant think of anything else...it has been a long time for me..

My favorite game from childhood was kickball. And what is so ironic about this is recently in our local "communities" announcement paper there was an Adult kickball league and you just had to gather up 8-9 people (doesn't matter on skill level either) pay the entry fee and show up at a designated park every Sunday afternoon. I was so about doing this, but not so much everyone else I know was. Which was sad, because I think it would have been a blast to kick the ball and run the bases...I was a stellar kicker back in the day.

Hi friend Veejay! Games I played in my childhood days was house-house, hide and seed,catch-catch,caroms. But lagori I dont know might be the boys may be playing.mostly we used to play hide and seek and catch catch.Childhood days were very good I miss those days. Now my children are also grown up they too are not playing now. Happy mylotting and have a nice day.

As a child I loved to play basketball, hide and seek, dodge ball, football, pick em up bust em up (a rough style of football). You take a group of guys, take a football throw it in the air, and the person that gets the football, tries to safely reach each end zone. Any thing went, and those were the days when you take a licking and kept on ticking. I loved Atari games as well, like Donkey Kong, Centipede, pitfall (although there is no end to this game). Later I became very fond of fighting type games like Street Fighter and Kung Fu. Then it switched over to everyday classics like tetris, monopoly, checkers, chess and my all time favorite spades game. We used to play those games to the wee hours of the early morning in the summertime when everyone was out of school. We have video game tournaments to see who could be the best. Ahhhh, those were the days. Thanks for allow me to reminence for a moment.

We played musical chairs and pass the parcel. I loved these. Also hide and seek. And much later on, spin the bottle.

I always loved to play hide and seek, and also I played a lot of soccer during the lunch breaks.

It seems such a long time ago, yet so fresh in my memory. Yes, we played marbles and I won and lost my fair shair of them. We also played wrestling, and there were one or two bruises. I think the most dangerous game we ever played was grenades - we used to throw stones from behind walls at each other. Occasionally, one of us would get hit and have a nasty bruise, but nobody got really badly hurt. It taught us to be very vigilant I must say. Derek

In my childhood i played games like hopping and catching.Running and catching.Once in school.I played football in the ground.I slipped and fell in the water in recess time.Teacher kept me out of class.In my native place i played games like shuttle and cricket.The indoor games i used to play was chess and carrom.

Wow! Did you ever bring back fond memories! We played games called 'King of the Hill', 'Hide and Seek', 'Simon Says', Scavanger Hunt', 'Hot Potato, Cold Potato' 'Dodge Ball' and 'Hopscotch'. It would take more energy than I have right now to describe them all, but I can tell you that they were great fun! Oh, what memories! Thanks for the great discussion!
