Back in the "dark ages" of hi-tech toys for kids, we survived quite well thank you, with many games that kept us outdoors all day with a break to run home for lunch. I can't begin to recall all the outdoor games that we played during those seemingly endless summer days of my youth" Buck Buck, Spin the Stick, Spin the Bottle, Post Office, Kick the Can, Marbles (we called them agates), getting under the hose in any one of our yards and wiling away those hot and humid central Jersey heat waves, sandlot baseball played on the very sandy Plaag's Grove field, shooting baskets in the Soffel back yard, swinging from a very far ranging monkey swing also in the Soffel yard from which we swung from a high platform and challenged each other to see how far we could drop to the ground.......the list goes on and on and on....
