what levitation thing?

Must have been on drugs at the time.

I'm assuming the levatation thing was where someone sits down and four other people each put a finger under an arm and knee and then lift that person up?

wow Ive never done that, that sounds weird.

Hiiii!

oh playground games are the best Kiss chase, polo I think that was made up in our school tho with our coloured muriel maybe it means something else to soemone else.

btw does the word backshot mean anything to anyone ?????

wow we played backshot

omg Sizzler I wonder is is the same game . lol we will discuss this in private lol

Cats got the measles ....was a sort of jumpin game that if you ended up in wrong posiion you had to take an item of clothing off!!!!!!!

Errrrrr an one wher eyou had to ask the person up something like 'may we cross your golden river?' an they would say 'yes take 2 doll/lamppost/giant steps'..........

OMG you just bought memories back lol "Thers a a party on the hill will you come...ooo my the fun

We played games like, red rover, bulldog, mayi, folow the lines, scarecrow, stuck in the mud, tigi off the ground, hide and seek, sardines, postmans knock and about million made up games, ooo and ghoststory games

hello. the Levitation thing was it where one person lay on the floor and six poeple around the person after a little dialogue would then lift the person above shoulder hight. if so do you remember what was said?

We played tig. and scarecrow tig. That was about it.

froggie
british bulldog
offground tick
hopscotch

Dub Dub Bin, I played that a lot.

Monakitty, where one person, (usually a boy) placed his hands on a wall or other structure bent over at 90 degrees and others took a run and jump to land on his back when as many others had gotten onto his back then another person assumed the same position using the first boy (usually holding onto his snake belt!) and the process was repeated again and again with the chant of "monakitty, monakitty oi oi oi" until the whole thing collapsed in a heap. Would be far too dangerous for today's children after all they complain of wrist strain using a Wii. Does anybody remember "clackers" a tab with two pieces of string with hard balls on the end? Lots of broken wrists with that one And of course the plastic ring with a string and a tennis ball on the end that girls used to put on the ankle and spin round jumping over the ball, bit like skipping.

French skips (elastics)
The pinhead/large stride/hop, tiggy. where you have one person allocating how many steps and what type of step you take until you reach them, tig them and run like hell!
Knockieido. Knocking on doors and running away
Kids wouldn't be encouraged to do that these days, the running would probably kill them even if the home owner didn't

in your nightmares

not forgetting the strawberry jam

put your tounge away, i dont where it has been!
