Cleo!!!!!!!!! Yes I remember "slugbug" we used to see one on the interstate, and who ever saw it first and "called" it...would hit the other guy.
And I DO remember "Mother May I" I think it was alot like red light, green light....you got to advance so many steps...etc...WOW what a trip down memory lane!!!!!!!!
How about this....
Jump roping to evie ivy over....then you went as fast as you could!!!
And how about the hand clap game...slide down my rain barrel, into my cellar door....etc....
WOW! I love this trip down memory lane!!! Anyone remember slow pokes?
or what about those Marathon bars, that were really long, and intertwined like a pretzel, but they were chewy carmel covered in chocolate...
And to finish the ditty
I started earlier that we used to play as a hand game, as children....
Miss Betsy had a baby..
she named her sister sue..
she put her in the bathtub..
just to see what she would do...
she drank up all the water, she ate up all the soap...
she tried to eat the bathtub...but it wouldnt go down her throat...throat...throat..
Miss Betsy called the doctor...Miss Betsy called the nurse...Miss Betsy called the lady with the alligator Purse, purse, purse...
In came the doctor...
in came the nurse...
in came the lady with the alligator purse..purse...purse...
Measels said the doctor, mumps said the nurse...nothing said the lady with the alligator Purse, purse, purse...
out went the doctor....out went went the nurse, out went the lady with the aligator purse, purse, purse.
Okay...so it's lame...but when I was a little girl, we loved playing this clapping game...just wondered if anyone else remembered it?
Does anyone remember the "found a peanut" rhyme??
