Originally published in 1935, this is an excellent collection of games
for adults and children from an era when people had more leisure time
and less gadgetry with which to amuse themselves - 'There never was a
day when so many games were played, both indoors and outdoors.'
'Increased leisure fuller appreciation of the value of recreation
greater youthfulness of adults more frequent social gatherings and more
mingling of young people and grown-ups - all such causes as these have
helped to multiply the occasions when someone inevitably remarks: What
game can we play? This book is the answer to that query.' The book
contains useful illustrations and the incidental music required for some
of the games. Contents Include: On playing games Indoor and party games,
Warming up games, Active games, Quiet games, Musical games, Brain test
games, Performing games, Surprise games, Christmas games, programmes
Outdoor and picnic games, Field games, Seaside and water games, Camp
