Hi hivers
Here is my entry to the second contest of the week, which is:
Your Favourite Childhood Games
While growing up, as a way of entertaining ourselves we usually played different forms of games. This could be sports or board games, it could even be games that involved cards... What matters is that we enjoyed playing them a lot when we were kids. Tell us about your favorite game.
Something unavoidable during our childhood was "playing". Growing up I played so many games but the only one I limited myself from playing was playing under the rain, playing under the rain is something I never did because I get cold easily, I don't like exposing myself to cold weather, cause I'll fall sick if I do.
The childhood games I like playing as a child then were:
I call on
One of my favorites, this game can also be played to know the most intelligent among the children cause it has to do with writing, and a lot of thinking also.
How it is played
Everyone can remember this game, it's an indoor game not indoor though that requires the players to write down the letters of the alphabet in a notebook. Then they proceed to write the names of persons, places, animal, and thing that begins with any letter that is called upon. Each player is allowed to call on any letter of the alphabet to start playing.
And also each answer gets a mark so the player with the highest marks wins the game.
It is played by a minimum of two people and a maximum of five persons
Hide and seek
The other name for hiding and seek in Nigeria is called " boju boju" what an interesting game, is one of my favorites also.
How it is played:
the hide and seek game is played by a minimum of two persons, and a maximum of five to ten persons, these persons will have to form a circle and they will pick a player to be in the middle of the circle.
The person in the middle will be asked to close his or her eyes for a short period and start counting from one to ten while the others run to hide and wait for the chosen person to find them. Anyone the chosen person catches will have to replace him or her to seek while the others hide
Some people are genius in this game, they were never caught.
Going back to remember our childhood is very interesting, cause our childhood is a stage we had most of our happy moments.
