Got that right! People were pretty innocent back then, the kids anyway, and we didn't have to hear the f word, thank God! Didn't even hear of drugs. I've got lots of other pictures from that era as well.
Those were the only things that didn't hurt your head when you slept. You just wrap your hair around them and then pull down the top part and it holds your hair and they were made of silicon hahaha and then when you get up, you just take them out easily and you had the cutest and prettiest curls. 😂😂😂 they looked goofy on your head, but they did work great hahaha they just popped right over the top of your hair. They were really cool. No split-ends! MUCH better than BOBBY-PINS! HA HA
I had a Scout Leader that grew up in the 70's and liked teaching us some of the games he did as a kid:
It chasey. One person is it has to run and catch the others. When they catch one the gang up on the others till their all caught.
Brandy, same as It chasey only there is only one It person at a time and you use a ball to throw at one another so the fat kid can catch someone.
Balloon stomp. use a foot of string to tie a balloon to each ankle. The last one to still have a balloon, wins. (what could go wrong)
Flame-o soccer. Played like regular soccer only the ball is made out of chicken wire with a bit of rag in the centre, soaked in kerosene and lit on fire!
Kick the bucket: Holding hands form a circle around a bucket. If a person touches the bucket in any way they are out of the circle. Keep going (till someone dies.)
There were other games but I was too concussed to remember them.
@Thevy29 dodgeball was always fun in school; of course, we didn't have these soft/foam balls like they used nowadays, we used whatever we already had... soccer balls, basketballs, kickballs, etc.
bonus points if you completely wiped someone out... 😅
