Re: What was yoiur favorite thing to play

We lived across from a park & there were major kids. We played wiffle ball, then soccer & kickball all the time. We also later on played Azzes up & in the summer Kick the Can was huge. We also played block tag w/ running thru people's backyards & running on garage roofs (I was a total tomboy).

As a younger kid, my bro & I would play "fort" all the time & bank with the monopoly money under the dining room table & my fave game was candyland or lightbrite.

Loved red light, green light......hide & go seek (especially at night with the buglight on - it always cast a spooky gow)...we'd play house and school a lot too.

Re: What was yoiur favorite thing to play

My oldest friend and I used to play that we were married to Bo and Luke Duke. We also played mermaids (she had a pool). We used to play explorer, which her mom got pretty upset over because we used to dig up huge gaping holes in her yard - all because we found a buried bottle in her yard oneday.

Happy Days (she was married to Fonzi and I was married to Chachi)

General Hospital (when Stavros was in the scene, back in the 70's - early 80's)

Barbies, rode bikes.

Re: What was yoiur favorite thing to play

We made up the silliest things all the time!!!!!

My sister and I would play what we would call "social security and bank office"...dont even know what it meant but we would answer phone, write messages for each other. It was so much fun!

Then we made up this game called "Potholder." Potholder was a club..i looked at a potholder in my moms kitchen and named it that. My boyfriend was always Kevin Bacon..my sisters John Travolta and my sisters friend..Davy Jones!!!!! HAHA
We would get all dressed up in moms clothes, heels and pocketbooks.

My all time fave though was school. HAd a blackboard in my room and I sooo loved it. Wound up becoming a preschool teacher. Chat Icon

Re: What was yoiur favorite thing to play

I had two best girl friends and we CONSTANTLY played Charlie's Angels.

We'd have her little brother give us "missions" and we'd pose and run and flip our hair.

But we ALWAYS fought over who had to be Sabrina. No one ever wanted to be Sabrina!! Chat Icon

My sister and I used to play "day camp"!

We'd make up schedules and pretend one of us was the counselor and one was the camper. We'd have arts & crafts, horseback riding, kickball, swimming, lunch, etc. I remember it like it was yesterday!

when you were little. I loved playing Cashier. I would take all of the cans out of my mothers cabinets, and ring them up. Of course, my customers were imaginary, but it was still fun. I even saved all of my allowance to buy myself a calculator that had paper, and made receipts. LOL

I also used to play "Boat" with my sisters. We had bunk beds, and would pretend we were fishing from the top bunk.



OMG, I uses to LOVE to play store with my mom. I would grab cans out of the pantry and buy them...get this, I even had a REAL cash register that they bought me for x-mas, after asking for it for like 3 years Chat Icon

I would use monopoly bills but my mom would give me real change for my till....oh what fun. We played for hours. I loved that thing Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Chat Icon you never played spud? From what I remember, it is a game played with a beach type ball that you play outside. All I remember is yelling a color and trying to peg my friends with said ball.....good times

What is spud?



fyi

SPUD is a popular children's game where players try to eliminate each other by catching, throwing and dodging a ball. As few as three may play, with no upper limit. To play, all that is required is a playground-sized ball and an open area to run.

To begin, one player is designated as the 'number-giver', and gives a number from 1 to however many players there are to each participant. Sometimes additional numbers are included that are not assigned to any player; these are known as 'ghost numbers'. One player is determined to be 'it'. The other players form a circle around 'it.' It throws the ball straight up into the air. When the ball reaches the apex of flight, 'it' calls out the number of one of the other players. If there is an owner for that number, they must catch the ball, either in flight or on the rebound. If there is no owner for the number (it was a 'ghost number'), it receives a letter and must throw the ball again.

In some variations, if the owner of the number catches the ball without a bounce, they become 'it', and can throw the ball immediately. As one player is rushing to retrieve the ball, the others scatter as fast as they can. When the ball is caught, the player that caught it shouts "STOP!"(some shout "SPUD!") The players running away must then stop, and the catcher throws the ball at any one of them.

If the catcher hits another player with the ball, the player who was hit receives a letter of the word "SPUD," S the first time they are hit, P the second, etc.

When a player receives all four letters of SPUD, they must sit out until a new game is started. The last player to sit wins.

In one variation of the game, the player catching the ball selects the player he or she wishes to hit and then is allowed to take four giant steps toward that person, while calling out the letter S-P-U-D.
