I remember the joy of hitting that ball over and over again and watching it wrap itself around that pole. And, remember how people would stand in line to play the winner?
How about this dangerous looking piece of equipment?
There's nothing like riding this sucker after your lunch of bologna sandwich, chips and SuzyQ's to test your stomach!
Another game I enjoyed was four square. I remember the joy of the perfect serve, and getting the ball just inside the square in order to eliminate someone. The end-of-recess bell would ring and it was a mad scramble to get back in line to go inside the school. You had to mentally note who was where when the game was called, and someone always would have to remember the ball. Such responsibility!
As much as I enjoyed these games, I think my favorite activity was spending time on the monkey bars and the uneven bars. I remember hanging upside down for ages and then doing "Penny Drops." I would go 'round and 'round in never ending flips and circles. I never hurt myself doing this, but I imagine now that kids aren't allowed to do this at recess for fear of broken bones! I would wear shorts under my dresses so that I could hang upside down without fear of being teased. I didn't care about sweating, dirty hands, messy hair, or anything else "grown up."
You ask any kid today what their favorite school subject is, and they're bound to say, "Recess." I know when I was a kid that was my answer too!
