It makes me wonder what my great granchildren's world will be like. <br /><br />Yes, we relied on imagination! :-) Maybe that fostered creativity in us? Maybe we are the last generation of such creative people? I hope not, but today's games leave so little to the imagination. I can't recall the last time I saw a group of children playing tag.<br /><br />Thanks for visiting!Teresa Cypherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08940430996766842518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4696914224277711875.post-75454729902415359282013-04-05T09:12:53.273-04:002013-04-05T09:12:53.273-04:00Ahhh, marbles.

I can’t imagine me ever allowing my kids to be out of my sight from morn till noon and not worry about where they were, much less play in the woods. <br />Your descriptions were so vivid that I feel as though I was there with you helping with the dam.<br />Thanks for this post.lyndagracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530605081989558341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4696914224277711875.post-16954020748495069402013-04-04T16:52:21.843-04:002013-04-04T16:52:21.843-04:00My daughter and I have never had that country expe...My daughter and I have never had that country experience, but I so wish we could have that chance.

The reason we could do play outside, though, is because we lived out of town: we had the room and the freedom. Here in the city, my backyard is small and the neighbors are close... I would love for my kids to have what I had.Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16272293468239097754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4696914224277711875.post-1908203660755650932013-04-04T09:46:37.643-04:002013-04-04T09:46:37.643-04:00These are some lovely childhood memories, where ch...These are some lovely childhood memories, where children actually had fun outdoors, using their minds, working together and laughing out loud! It is a shame that the tv and a games console for many has taken the place of outdoor adventures. Looking forward to reading more of your posts.
