What my mum played
Michelle is 31 years old and
tells us about a game played when aged 7-8. My school break times: During
school break times I liked to play hopscotch and skipping.
My favourite school playground
game: My favourite playground game was skipping. How to play: A length
of rope is held between two people. The two people holding the rope have
to pull the rope round with their hands so that it forms a circle. While
the rope is going round someone else has to jump in the middle without
touching the rope.
What you need: A length
of rope.
Special game location, surface
or design: You need a flat surface like the school playground to play on.
Special rhymes, songs or
language used:
There are lots of skipping
rhymes like:
The wind, the wind,
The wind blows high.
Out pops Michelle from the
sky.
She is handsome, she is
pretty,
She is the girl from the
golden city.
Tell, tell your lover s
name...
