Remember hide and seek? What about sardines and stuck-in-the-mud, kiss chase and kick-the-can, tig, tag and it? Ever made a decision using 'ip-dip-sky-blue-who's-it-not-you'? Kiss Chase and Conkers is an evocation of the golden days of childhood, when every cul-de-sac, back garden and park was an adventure waiting to happen. Over 80 traditional children's games are described and illustrated here, from timeless classics to more recent inventions. Kiss Chase and Conkers celebrates the ingenuity of children throughout the ages, the resourcefulness and the inventiveness of games devised, played and passed on through the generations. Whether you were a child in the 80s or are now in your 80s, you'll find that the games described here will bring back memories of scuffed knees, fierce rivalries and eternal friendships.
