Answer 1

graveyard tag. it was played when we were around 7-10 years old as soon as it got dark in the summer. if you were caught by 'the ghost' you were a tombstone. only another live person could tag you and bring you back. you had to turn everyone into a tombstone to win.
We would run and hide and scare the hell out of each other at night in the hills where i lived. there is NOTHING like hiding, panting and sweating, and feeling a hand grab your shoulder from behind saying 'gotchya!' damn near widdled my pants sometimes!

Answer 2

I played jacks with my older sister (it was the only game she would play)
My brother and I would play almost any game. We played Sorry, Monopoly, Chinese Checkers, Pente, Life, Mouse Trap, Operation, Quinto, Facts in Five, Battle Ship - almost any board game we could find.
When we tired of board games we would play cards. Canasta, Seven up, Rummy, Red Over Black, Speed, War.
As a family on Saturday nights we would play cards - Seven Up and Hearts were are favorites. Sometimes we would play Monopoly.
My day, my brother and I were (and still are) very competetive.

Played it for years during ski-trips in the 60-80's with my parents and my brothers.

I loved playing with my "Barbies". I'd play with anyone who had Barbies, Barbie clothes or any Barbie accessories!! I loved to trade with my friends. I think I liked playing with them because I thought it was practice for being a grown-up.
