Playing Hide & Seek

We played hide and seek a lot. I am the oldest of four kids, so we were always trying to find something to do. We would hide behind furniture, in cupboards and under beds. Anywhere we could. Once at my uncle's house he put one of us kids on top of the refridgerator to hide. That's one place you don't really think to look lol. I never fell asleep while playing hide and seek. Our house didn't have that many good hiding places, so usually you were found very quickly.

no, i never fell asleep but sure did play alot of it. we also use to make clover chains & stretch them across the street & let cars run through them. did u ever do that. bet your parents were about to panic when they couldn't find you.

Yeah I use to play hide and seek when I was young all those were the days. I remember me and my sister use to play with our causins in our condo which was kind of hard for me to find a spot since I was big and not to many good spots to hide in our condo but it was in all good fun. I loved playing in our house with my sister. I remember leaving her in her spot for an hour while I watched tv lol.

We always played hide and seek. We had many different versions of the game. We usually counted to 25 I think...after the person who was it started looking for people we would try to run back to base and you had to yell "olly olly ox and free!" (whatever that may have meant!)

I never fell asleep since we were always trying to find the right moment to run back to base. My favorite hiding spots were in the shower and in a closet behind all the coats - no one ever found me in those spots!

We also used to play another variation we called flashlight tag at night - whoever was it had to spot you with the flashlight, but of course again we still tried to run to home base!

oh my you feel asleep, I never heard anything like that before, that must have been some experience. We played the game of hide and seek, but it was counting one, two, three, and I was never good at hiding, I hid behind a parked car on the street or in an open doorway and that was about it.

Man did this bring back a nasty memory. We were playing and I backed into a rose bush. I had thorns in my backside and I can rememeber my mom getting them out. Talk about embarrassing.

I never did fall asleep playing.

Hi Sweets

I also played it when I

was a child..when we had company

we were allowed to stay out after dark

We lived in the country so there was little danger.

I never got caught..I was very good at hiding

because I wasn't afreaid of the dark! hehe

xoxoxoxoxo

No I don't think I ever fell asleep while playing the game but I certainly do remember it. We lived kind of out of the city so there was a ton of places to hide. Don't remember havig any one particular one though. Whatever worked at the time. I do remember choosing places that I could get back to home base if I were detected though.

Yes I did when I was a kid you played outside also played ring around the Rosie and there was another game we played where you had to try to break through a line of people across from you that was called Red Rover. I can't remember ever falling asleep playing hide and seek though.Have a great evening.

hello oreocookie3,
thats a funny story. that never happened to any of my family though. lol... we used to play hide and seek with out cousins. every sunday my grandparents would take us on a 45min car ride so that my grandad could visit his brothers and sisters with my sister, grandma and i. we dont play inside the house because we might break something, so we played outside. we get to hide behind banana trees, tall grasses in the house sheds, behind trucks and etc. there were a ot of places to hide. ohh those were the days. to be little and dont have a care in the world.
