International Games

 

There are many more out there of course, this is the second update of international games, I will be adding more as time permits.  One thing that is obvious quite quickly is the remarkable spread of the same games, for example as you can see, the American game 'Duck Duck Goose' also exists in the Czech Republic and Ghana (and undoubtedly many more), just with a different name.  Did this game move between these seemingly unconnected cultures?? If so, how?  Or did the children spontaneously create the same game thousands of miles apart??  I have no idea...
