GAMES FOR CHILDREN'S PARTIES

The games in this list are mainly for children from four to ten or twelve years of age. They are suitable both for indoors and the lawn. While most of them call for only a mild form of exercise, a few of the more lively running games are included. The so-called quiet games are not necessarily noiseless, but are distinguished from active games in which the players move around.

SEASHORE GAMES

An especial effort has been made to secure for this list games that utilize pebbles, shells, stones, holes dug in the earth, and diagrams drawn on the sand. Many games are given requiring but little activity and suited to hot days; but there are also a number of good running and chasing games suitable for a hard beach. Games are given for both young and older players.
