Classic Playground Games

A delightful book which records favorite childhood games and recalls forgotten rhymes. With more children suffering from obesity, Susan Brewer looks at the social games we used to play from skipping to chase games which used up our energy during recess.

Instead of costly computer games, we used rhyming games, played Jacks and showed our balancing skills during competitive games of hopscotch. A charming book, full of anecdotes and nostalgia for how we remember our favorite place at school – the playground.
