[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 319088, member: 1963"] I wonder if part of this is that so many of the old-time recess activities for kids were games that involved physical contact (Red Rover, Tag, Freeze Tag, Ghost in the Graveyard, etc), or were things like 4-square and tetherball where a child could catch a ball in the face. I'd bet kids aren't really allowed to play games like that and I think that's a huge mistake. I think kids need times to run and blow off speed and steam and play like this. [/QUOTE]
