Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Song Games and Ball Games: Adapted for School Use But play, whether it concern children or adults, must maintain the essential characteristics of play, viz emancipation from the earnestness with regard to the end which is the mark of all true work. If one is work ing, it is for a conscious, practical aim, while real play, like pure art, ought to be its own aim. In Britain quite in contrast to what has been the case on the continent - games have always been highly appreciated; but I am doubtful if in Britain play has always remained play, and if the players themselves have not too often had a certain inclination to put into it a seriousness which has nothing to do with play as play. Where play exclusively for the sake of pleasure is changed into play for the sake of gaining a prize, ideal or material, where there are professionals in football as there are professionals in shoemaking, there is no longer play as it was originally; it has been altered into earnest work, and has become what is called sport. It is with Games, as it is with Educations. They comprehend, and necessarily must comprehend, some thing partly human, and partly national. From the History of Games we learn that the majority of games now used are very old. There are Ball, Stone, and Song Games, where the origin is lost in the night of the tales. I think that the expression a national game has to be understood less as a game which has its origin in the nation in question than as a game which has become a favourite game of that nation, and has been changed to suit its peculiar character. I think Miss Bremner has well understood this. She has understood that what can give pleasure to Swedish children may also give pleasure to English-speaking children, on con dition that it is properly adapted to them. May - I sincerely wish and hope so' - these games give pleasure to many, and at the same time serve as a means of Education. Man, adults as well as children, needs the one as well as the other, and perhaps most both united. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children's games are among the most interesting social phenomena. Their inventiveness and variety are overwhelming, and their durability is uncanny. Some children's games still current today were played when Rome was young. Minor details may change, the words of the jingles change, but the games remain basically the same from one generation to the next. Also, children's games reflect with great accuracy both current and past situations, providing a good index to the folkways of a certain time and place. This book is the pioneer study in American children's games. It contains scores of games that the author collected throughout the eastern half of the United States around the turn of the century. It is the basic book in the field, for much of the material has disappeared since Newell collected it. Of course this book can never be superseded, since this particular moment in time is gone and cannot be retrieved. Newell, who was one of America's foremost folklorists, has described the procedure of the games, and quoted collected texts of the songs in full, with the music for them in many cases. He also provides comparative material demonstrating the kinship between the game under discussion and similar games from other cultures. Over 100 games are given here under various functional categories: guessing games, games of chase, ball games, knife games, and many others. The book has great value for modern readers. It is also an important document for the folklorist, since most of this material is not obtainable elsewhere. It is valuable to historians as a source of information on popular culture. It is useful to parents, teachers, and any others who may want suggestions for games and entertainments for children. And for the general reader it will bring back many a golden memory of the days when he, too, played "London Bridge is falling down."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Song Play Book: Singing Games for Children These fifty song-plays have been chosen from a great number because of their adaptability to class-room and playground conditions; they also afford a large amount of vigorous exercise in proportion to the small amount of singing demanded. London Bridge and games of similar type, though favorites with the children, have been purposely omitted since they are games in which the amount of singing and exercise is not proportionate.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Children's Singing Games: Illustrated and Arranged Children, trained as they are in the kindergarten to use actions and words in unison, if allowed to play these games naturally, and with spirit, will find an outlet for their activity Which will prove as beneficial and pleasing in the present as it has been in the past. We have taken much pains to give pretty games little known in this country, as well as some of those familiar to us all. The list might have been extended almost indefinitely. The tunes will be found in all cases simple and suited to the child voice. To the old, well-known songs we have given the old, well-known tunes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Song-Roundels and Games During a number of years educators in all parts of our country have endeavored to make games more popular, and to some extent good results have been obtained. Games are played by children as well as adults in the numerous private and public gymnasiums and on the play grounds which city and school authorities have provided for the general public. In these gymnasiums and play grounds one finds children of various physical conditions, some strong and some weak, and it therefore fol lows that when games are played without system and supervision, the strong eventually become the main participants and the benefits which should be shared equally by all are reaped by the strong alone. It is, therefore, apparent that some one is needed to supervise, guide, and introduce games, and'to do this he must be interested in the work, must understand the games, and must have played them himself. And it is as a guide to these instructors that I have conceived the idea of arranging and composing 'the games found in this little book. The games herein contained are song-games, roundels (reigen), ac companied with vocal music, class, competitive, and antagonistic games. Some of the songs I translated from the German, others are original, but all are written to well known melodies. To some extent the games are graded, but, on the whole, I have left it to the judgment of the instructor to select those suitable for his purpose.
