We played jacks, hopscotch, marbles too...but I was really into dolls at home. Dolls and cats and reading a book.

I know of it, of course (who doesn't?), but I never played it...It's a very ancient game - the Greeks and Romans played it, but even then it seems to have been primarily a girl's game...Are you playing it again?

That is one game we do not hear of any more. I wonder what happened to it. I guess other games and phones came along.

I think you were probably to good to play against. Hopscotch was one of the games the girls played when young, but I never saw a boy attempt to join in.
