I like the water fight one! Do they still sell the actual elastic rope loops made for jumping? When I was in elementary school that was THE game for the girls! A girl at each end with the elastic around her legs, the jumper in the middle. Then move it higher and higher up their legs to make it harder! I haven’t seen packages of those in decades. They were rounded elastic, thick, soft.
It popped into my head, they are called Chinese jump ropes! You can still buy packs of them. Now that we have the Internet I see they have a long history in China.
I do not remember Chinese jump rope. but there are kids on my street who will have chalk hopscotch in front of their house (I’ve not seen them playing)
Those tree houses are adorable. Like Lisa I remember seeing the elastic band game it was not as simple as the stamp, there was a lot of crossing and twisting of the elastic combined with jumping in and out. It may have been a short lived craze. The hopscotch stamp is cute.
Great summer fun on these stamps. The children seem really happy 🙂
