We used to play that, but when I knew we were going to play, I would put like 8 bobby pins in my hair, plus my headband and barettes. I was just 11, so I didn't have much in the way of jewelry, but I sure did have a lot of hair stuff. I would also layer my clothing. LOL.

Oh my. I was born in 1955. All games I'm mentioning were pre-video, etc.

Board games: Candy Land, Go to the Head of the class.

Yard games: Mother May I. Red Light, Green light. Of course, Tag, You're It.

Card Games: War, Gin Rummy, Rummy, Hearts.

I could probably go on and on, but those are the ones that stick in my mind the most from when I was very young.

Need Christmas Present Idea..I'm StumpedDec 19, 2011
Because of having to change jobs, there is no extra money to buy my parents anything for Christmas.  Besides that, they are the hardest people to buy for.  If they want it, they buy it, which leaves the rest of us scratching our heads anyway.  I am needing a very low cost option for a Christmas idea for my parents.  I have 2 children (11 and 5) so I'm thinking something handmade, but not cheesy, from them.  Anyone have ANY ideas as I have totally drawn a blank.&nbs ...
