>>I wasn't much into girl games myself, and certainly not as much as the actual girls seemed to be.<<
That, in retrospect, may have been a factor for me also. *s* I'm lousy at hula hoop and a disaster at jump rope, and hopscotch interested me only once I figured out that jumping one-footed, or backward, was actually challenging. I don't think I could replicate Natka's feat with the stone, but balance games are among my favorites as an adult.
I love the focus on teaching and learning in this series. (And, actually, in several of your others. Theme located!)
