We would go into the woods and build forts and choose teams and have walnut fights.

I wonder how many female dog-people messed around with dolls. Not me. Which is probably why I didn't get married and have kids! I've been improperly enculturated, I guess.

We had some awesome kickball games in the middle of the street and we lived next to 2 schools, had swings and monkey bars to play on, huge fields for baseball, soccer, tennis courts. My favorite thing to do when by myself was walk to the cemetary and feed the swans at the ponds there. I never owned any game systems and spent 90% of my time outside in good weather.

After my parents split, my childhood went out the window and I became a second mother to my four younger brothers...But I had my first GSD, Prince, and I worked with him, hiked with him, and loved him.
No Nintendo, no video games, no TV...Clean childhood!

Seems all that wild vine we loved using so much, was really poison ivy! The whole block was a bath of calamine lotion for the next couple of weeks. LOL Thanks for reminding me!

I lived on a dairy farm, with 5 brothers and 2 sisters. We made forts in the straw or hay mow. We used to also jump from the barn beams. Wouldn't catch me doing that now.
I spent many hours on my pretend farm in the dirt, with my barn, and plasitic cows, horses, pigs and their babies. I had tractors and cultivators, balers and all that was needed.
I remember playing one day out on my farm, and my brothers were target shooting (* I did that too!) and a bullet whizzed past me and just missed me.
I also had my own horse, dog, goat, two ducks (George and Rita) and a calf every year that I showed at the fair. That kept me busy, between doing chores (which I always picked over doing the dishes), 4-H, and school.
