I went to a country school so long ago! We played marbles, hide and seek, fox and goose in the winter, and red rover. We had swings, a large slide and a teeter-totter. But mostly we watch the boys fight.
I found it hard also. I can't imagine how anyone could do it in under 5 minutes. That's a little more than 2 seconds a piece. 3 seconds would come in at 7 and a half minutes. Even easy puzzles take me longer than that. I came in at 18:35.
Yes it is! One of the fun things to do on the playground. I was the only girl I knew that played marbles! :)

Liked Jacks better, but played marbles when that was the only game around. Then I learned how to play cards: rummy, cribbage, Hi-Low Jack, Canasta, and even poker. My mom and grandmother owned and ran a rest home for the elderly, and I had lots of people to play cards with at a very early age. Ah, so long ago.
