As a child I loved running around outside, instead of sitting in the house and watching tv all day or playing games. However it seems that times have changed...children are encouraged to stay inside versus going out to get exercise and in essence be a kid. This new trend could be because neighborhoods are not as safe as they once were and families are becoming more protective. But if you happen to come across those energetic ones who seem to have ants in their pants, here are a few of my suggestions:1. Hopscotch - draw blocks number 1- 10...well hopefully you remember the game if not I have linked some instructions :)
2. Red Light, Green Light
3. Jump Rope (double dutch, single rope)
4. Freeze Tag - yet another version of Tag
Well those were my four of my favorite games as a child, along with hand games... you know Swing, Swing, Swing, Down Down Baby, London Bridge and all of that other exciting stuff!
