remember playing elastics @ school??

Last night Lacie went a little mad with her skipping rope. She was skipping inside the house, on the balcony, out the back and in her room! It reminded me of being at school and the games I'd hang out all day to play with my friends in the playground... ELASTICS!!!!!!!!! It was the best fun ever. Hmmm I wonder if I have some elastic??? Err derrrr, of course I do (I said to myself). So, this morning I whizzed a few metres of elastic together, wrote her name in thick black texter (as I did at school), did a few practice runs, wrote out the song to sing as you jump along and popped it in her pocket, packed the elastic in her school bag and off to school she went!



ENGLAND, IRELAND, SCOTLAND, WALES, INSIDE, OUTSIDE, INSIDE, ON..

The Verdict... Well, Miss Lacie just got home and it was a HIT!! She and her little friends LOVED it.

Did you play elastics at school? Were there any other songs?

The other craze that some kiddies are doing is finger knitting!!! Any other games?
