Games
I love to play games at school and with the neighborhood kids! What types of games do you like to play? We get to be very creative because there aren't many toys other than what we can make ourselves so most of our games only require ourselves. The painting to the left shows children playing "Crack the Whip"--my favorite game! In this game a group of us hold hands and run in a line until the "whip cracker" decides to change direction, catching the rest of us off guard. Sometimes we are moving so fast that one of us looses grip or is flung away even though we try so hard to hold tight and stay together. Do you play any games like crack the whip with your friends? Can you think of any more games where you don't need any equipment or materials? Use your imagination!
