When I was very young, my favorite was Hungry, Hungry Hippos. When I got a little older, the favorite was Pente. I'm not sure what came after that.

I liked the game UNO a lot. I kept on bugging people to play it with me. My brother Andy can attest to that.

I liked being outside the most.


We had a great neighborhood full of kids.


I can't pick a favorite.


Tree climbing
Hide and seek
Hopscotch
Jacks
Marbles
Jumprope
Chinese Jumprope
Roller skating
Ice skating especially at night. We built a fire and roasted hot dogs.
Kick ball
Bicycling with with the flip flip flip of cards on the wheels. We also had empty dish detergent bottle fill with water to squirt the passer by. Later we had squirt guns.
Building snow forts with a stash of snow balls on hand.
Making snow angels
Scavenger hunts
Playing cards and board games in a tent we built outside with blankets.
Played in the woods and sectioned off rooms as if it was our house. We brought kids play dishes and had a tube of water to do dishes. Pretended we were vacuuming the rooms that were sectioned off too. And we brought food out there too.
I played barbie dolls with a friend down the street, but that was my least favorite thing to do.

Depending upon how you look at it, I was very fortunate to be raised by a single mother who dated many different rich and flamboyant boyfriends. I was exposed to far more exotic lifestyles than most kids... Military, police, charter boat captains, pilots, professional ball players, rodeo people, even a bullfighter, and the guy who invented the 'flip-top' toothpaste container.

Have you ever played Connect Flour?

Its a pretty great game : p

And uhhhh favorite game as a kid..... I dont really know. I liked alot of games. I liked Uno a ton, the game of Life, Monopoly, my little brother and I played Star Craft on the 64 alot. That was always alot of fun. And for a short time I really enjoyed playing Yu-gi-oh card game with my little brother, but it didnt last long : p

you sure you never faced me?I barely had to try to win in school!

Board games were my favorite and still are but nobody wants to play them with me
we used to love going swimming at the community pool, that was always fun
Riding bikes was great too although Im not sure that the last two are games
taking our blankets and making a tent was always fun
I was always and still am a girly girl, so playing dress up was the best and I loved Dolls

Our Monopoly games were ruthless... but only about 45 minutes long because of that. lol

Hubby knew I loved board games, so for our first Christmas he bought me a bunch. Then he realized where he went wrong. He hates board games. So, those board games last 20 years, in near mint condition, before we found a little girl who loved board games too.

 

[shrimp]

the card game known as "War". Drove my cousin insane wanting to play for hours.

 

[oldethennew]

when allowed to go outside; making 'superman' capes' out of old rags and playing 'jump-rope-hop scotch'
hide-and-go-seek, and basically trying to do 'back-bends and splits, and general 'showing-off'...
hey, when you aren't allowed to speak or sit on the furniture in the house, you will come up with
all kinds of things to get attention from the kids that live right around you, and boy did I have a
great imagination, not to mention tall-long-legged and agile...sometimes I would be allowed by the
'boys' to play football, and I could 'bring them down', by grabbing ahold of their big feet...
loved playing ball and when a new house was being built, we would place long boards that we
could jump up and down on and run across without falling off, etc...God always seemed to step-in to give me
a chance to seem like I was a normal in some ways...

 

[Reborn]

I would melt and burn things with a magnifying glass.
Things any normal kid would burn...

Barbies
Bugs
My report cards
The mortgage papers to my parents house
My brothers priceless stamp collection
Furniture
My neighbors furniture


Little stuff like that.
Nothing of importance.

I bet you were popular!

I'd play board games with u. Would also play jacks and jumping ropes, but i stopped the jumping ropes sometime after i had children.. Now this isnt a game, but i also liked swings.

Smear the queer. But we weren't politically correct then. Nor now.
