Back in the day

Can you remember the best kids games from back in the day? While standing in line at Michael's yesterday I overheard a mom say to her kids, "No, no video games this month!" I had to laugh and say, "and the month has just begun!" This led to a conversation between us with how when we were kids we didn't have all the techno gadgets that they have now. How we rode our bikes for hours, got a game of kick ball going with the neighborhood kids, or "tag your it", red rover, the Freeze game. Of course her kids just rolled their eyes at us like we were crazy! But hey, we had fun as kids without all the "toys"! Now my kids would probably be rolling their eyes right along with them, but they are older now and have jobs to keep them busy and out of trouble, for the most part.
