It's Children's Day again. I feel that time is passing by so fast, but my heart is full of joy. Thinking of my far away childhood, I suddenly return to that carefree time.

"Six six thirty-six, plus five sixes, we want to celebrate, you count quickly." When I saw this riddle when I was a child, I thought I had won a treasure, so I quickly guessed this riddle for the children around me before Children's Day. Later, a question was asked, why is it Sixty-six when it is Sixty-six? The answer is unreasonable. I can't explain it, so I just let it go. But on the next Children's Day, I couldn't help but take it out and let my younger friends guess, and I couldn't stop having fun.

Festivals always have a festive atmosphere. In addition to guessing, there are also singing songs. I still remember the lyrics: "The flowers are fragrant in June, the sun is so sunny in June, on Children's Day, songs are sung everywhere, singing about the happiness of the motherland, singing about the prosperity of the motherland. We sang happily with the international children, what they said The children are different, and the songs they sing are different, singing, singing, singing, in order to realize the common ideal of all mankind ..."

's cheerful singing voice, excited face, unconsciously sang the song of a teenager, thinking of the appearance of his friends, as if The teachers sitting on campus again celebrated Children's Day. I remembered that there was a male classmate in the class who couldn't sing, so he opened his mouth randomly and had the wrong mouth shape. The teacher asked him to sing alone. As a result, he stood up and finished singing very off-key, enjoying himself, and then looked like he was done. Waiting for the reward, the teacher and classmates laughed so hard. Oh, that kind of happiness and innocence is still vivid in my mind.

Childhood is so innocent and simple, almost like a blank sheet of paper. As adults say, children have nothing else to do but study, eat and play. Yes, play is a major theme. There were a lot of games back then.

Throw the handkerchief

At that time, the physical education teacher would ask all the children to join hands and form a circle, sit on the ground, clap their hands together and sing: " Throw the handkerchief , Throw the handkerchief, and put it gently behind the child. Don't tell him." Hurry up and catch him, hurry up and catch him." Then he found someone holding a handkerchief and ran around in a circle. Throw it behind someone who is not paying attention, and then run away quickly. If the classmate does not notice, the person who threw the handkerchief will circle around and catch him. If he finds out, he will quickly chase the person who threw the handkerchief with his handkerchief. As soon as we chased him, the crowd became loud and excited, shouting excitedly. The excitement could not be suppressed. Those who are caught stand in the middle of the circle and perform, sing, or tell stories. It's quite a mental exercise.

The eagle catches the chicks

One of the teachers or classmates is an eagle, the other is a chicken, and the others are chickens. The chickens behind the chicken woman hugged the waist of the one in front. At first, the eagle spread its arms like a hungry tiger and pounced on the chickens behind the chicken woman. The chicken woman and the chickens were so frightened that they retreated with howls. To dodge, the chicken lady also spread her wings and tried her best to protect the chick behind. The chick ran around with it. Once it failed to catch it and fell behind, the eagle would pounce on it, catch it and eat it, causing a panic. Phew, it was so thrilling, some stragglers would even cry in anxiety, as if they were really chickens being eaten.

Flower Basket

During class, students will work in groups of four and cross their right legs together, which is called Flower Basket. Four people form a circle, jumping around on one leg while singing: "Pan, Pan , put a flower basket, there is a flower on the ground of the flower basket, what kind of flower, girl flower, girl, girl, please kneel down." Then the four of them slowly squatted together until their crossed legs knelt down on the ground together, and then sang the lyrics again, and then Get up together. The four people must be coordinated and about the same size, otherwise the big man will pull the small man down and the flower basket will fall apart. The flower basket must work together, which is very conducive to cultivating the spirit of collectivism.

Rubber band jumping

At that time, girls’ favorite thing was rubber band jumping. Two people were pulling on both ends of the rubber band, and the others were singing songs and stepping on it with their feet. The rubber band was flying up and down under their feet and on their legs. For those who are skilled at dancing, the rubber band will feel like it is being sucked and stuck firmly to her body. For those who are not skilled at dancing, the rubber band will bounce up uncontrollably.The rubber bands rise from the ankles, calves, knees, all the way to the waist, and finally to the shoulders and neck. Only a few people can jump at this height, and they belong to top experts.

still remembers a little friend who was short and would lift his foot to reach the rubber band. He often couldn't reach or step on it, and even fell to the ground on his back because he couldn't stand firmly. He fell big buttocks and the whole family laughed. Sometimes, because the rubber band stretcher is tall, no one can jump, so we simply do the crab stand, which is to stand upright like a crab and turn over. The hands and feet must be straight and open. Some are very graceful, with coordinated movements, like a wheel. It turned over rhythmically, causing a burst of cheers. However, some of them really look like crawling crabs or even crawling like scorpions when they stand upside down. They look very interesting and very funny. But it can also make people laugh. Although there is an element of ridicule, it really brings a lot of fun to everyone.

Scratching board

Ask an adult to saw out four small boards, dye them with different colors on both sides, let go of the board, then take a stone, throw the stone, quickly grab a few boards of the same color with your right hand, and then catch the stone. If you're too slow, you can't catch the pebbles, if you're too fast, you can't catch the board. You have to think about the time, speed and slowness, and especially train your eyes, hands, and concentration. Sometimes I put the scratch board on the desk and play with it for a while. However, this game sharpened my fingernails. I remember that there was a time when I kept grabbing the board from the ground, and my fingers had barbs. The nails that were close to the ground were worn to the flesh. It hurt, but even so, I still couldn't stop playing.

Grabbing stones

is similar to grabbing a board, except that the board is replaced by four stones. Throw one up, then pick up a few more on the ground. Sometimes, you quickly grab the stones one by one, and then catch the thrown one with your backhand. Sometimes, Just pull up the ground and catch it with your backhand. Depending on the distance, you can figure out how to do it. Learn and use it flexibly, very educational.

Blowing bubbles

In summerWhen the wheat is ripe, we will use wheat straws to blow the washing powder water into colorful colors. Everyone gathers around the basin to compete with who can blow bigger bubbles and who can blow more bubbles. It’s fun. What a joy. Sometimes adults forget to do work when asked to do it. I remember that time I was so good at playing in the yard that I put a lot of washing powder in half of the water in the big washing tub. A group of people lay there playing and playing. When my mother called me, she asked me if I had fed the chickens. Goose? I just remembered that I had forgotten this incident. When I was nervous, I turned around and stood up to block the basin. Unexpectedly, I couldn't stand firmly. Instead, I fell back and sat in the basin. I was soaked all of a sudden. Naturally, all the friends surrounding the basin were soaked, causing a fuss. I exclaimed, how embarrassed I was, and I couldn’t help laughing out loud every time I thought about it.

also has many games, such as hoop rolling, spinning top, mud cannon, square jump, anti-turning, stone blocking, glass ball, sandbag throwing, east-west, north-south, tree-climbing monkey, melted ice cream, motionless... There are countless, everything you need.

When I was a child at that time, there were no video games like today, and we didn’t have the superior conditions now, but we were still infinitely happy.

Childhood can never go back. But the joy of childhood will always remain in my memory. Some people say that being young in the past was common sense, being young now is a matter of mentality, and being young when you are old is a dream. Let us keep our childlike innocence and always have the joy of childhood and the dream of joy. Let us keep our childlike innocence forever and be happy every day!

It's Children's Day again. I feel that time is passing by so fast, but my heart is full of joy. Thinking of my far away childhood, I suddenly feel like I'm back to that carefree time.
