The one with the stones is " Go dung a Manuel road gal and boy fe go bruck rock stone gal and boy" you sing these words while everyone sit in a circle and pass a stone from person to person as fast as you can without squeezing your fingers under the stones
This is one of my favorite kids' games .( WE'RE camping through the rocky road, right through, right through the rocky road. Said the gal 👧 me no love, me no chat to them, right through ,right through the rocky road 😂😂. This one, we formed a circle with one girl in the middle going around while we sang the song 🎵 until she picked the one she loved. That goes on until everyone gets their turned 😅.
I am an 80s baby and I played a lot of the games you mentioned. In reflection, they were games that prepared us for life! How to socialize, compete in a civil way and understand that someone will be better than you, but it's all right and that there will be something that you'll be good at. A nuff girl get impress with these games and also, nuff kiss got stolen with that 123 red-light game, after school bell ring. Hahaha. High school games involved 'draft' and 'money football' until we start playing the real football in between recess and after school. In my earlier teenage years, I discovered that I was very creative at kite making. I made them all! From the 'bone' of a coconut tree, to 2 inch wide bamboo frames, at times, 10 ft high, 6 ft wide, with a 100 ft tail for stability and zingers that was louder than any Leyland Truck. I'd set it for sail and it'll be there from evening until morning. That was the peak of my creativity as a young man growing up. All good memories though. Gwaan do the right thing boss! Excellent job.
Made gigs out of 🥑 seeds, truck out of drinks box and used fishing line to steer it. Kite out of black plastic bag and coconut leaf spine. Whole heap of things we used to make.
That's is called buy bird, buy bird in and out the window. Show me your motion challa. Riddle me this and Riddle me dat. Tag a war, Ketchy pushy, and jumping jack.
I use to make kite with my exercise books with bamboo sticks we use to tear little splits in the book page by making it look like x pattern and push the bamboo sticks through splits . The song she is talking about go dung / down a Manuel road gal and boy fi go Bruck rock stone 🎶go dung a Manuel road gal and boy fi go bruck rock stone🎶bruck them / dem one by one bruck them two by two bruck them 3 by finger mash don’t cry memba/ remember a play we a play 🎶. Kareem you are a darling to be bringing back my childhood memories the only sad thing about these memories that make me sad is my mom , my Dad , my GRANDMA AND all their kids and friends are all gone including some of my friends ,😢 . This is why we should cherish the our family members ,friends and neighbors we must love ❤️ live and laugh with each other because after a while we will be just memories
@@dubsounds 😂 what on earth is chocolate leaf kite ? I’m a kingstonian born and raised so maybe 🤔 that’s why I don’t have any idea what that is or looks like 😂 😂 so please 🙏 explain
It’s sad as I played these games but can’t remember the rules and details. 😀. Some I do like Brown Girl in the Ring. We even had Ms. Jamaica contest. Jacks and many other games thought you quickness/dexterity. I was v/good at it. You learned so much ..team play/how to resolve issues/negotiation skills. Taking turns.
We use to make kite with tissue paper, coconut leaf and mix flour to make glue to stick it...1 2 3 red light we still play with the kids lol... chiny skip, marble, hand clap games. I loved seeing the trucks made but never made one.
😊we play marble and gigs in school I always make my own gig as a youth with guava tree 🌴 in Jamaica stoney hill St Andrew the best time of my life growing up in my beautiful country Jamaica we use to go mango bushe in the summer time in stoney hill
Dandy shandy...when you stuff a milk or juice carton with newspaper...one girl on each end..a girl in the middle..object of di game is you dodge (sight)the ball❤ VIBRANT LUV 🇯🇲♥️
WINSTON; For school boys, we made wheels , we would cut a piece of an old rubber hose , for joining we use a piece of wood keeping it as a circle , then we use of galvanise wire giving it a u, shape at the botting which was used to guide the wheel as we run!
Love this! We also use to play dandy shandy and baseball also hopscotch. Those days were the best times of ourlives. Juice boxes were our balls. Thanks for bringing back the nostagia.
I made the one with the string, central wooden rod and two wheels. I also used to make the carts that had a seat. Also made the tissue paper kites with bamboo.

Remember, all who born on January skip around...? Make a circle, and whenever your birth month is called, you skip around in the ring. Now everyone knows what month you're born.🤣

Marble was my game and as a girl my cousin dem use to hate see me a come! Jacks came second
Marble, Jax and even an elastic game in which you'd bounce it off the wall to intersect with others and then you'll capture those that you overlap
Baji was the name of the really big kites.
Hi Kareem, I really enjoyed watching your videos. They are interesting and different, and they brought back lots of memories. Lob it!
Good memories I used to play most of those games in the seventies and eighties ❤
We made gigs with guava wood, really tough. Try splitting that Mr bad man 😅
I know kite paper, colorful and thin like the paper that’s used in gift bags,
Wi use to call it pretty paper. Good ole days
Ring ding.. marypole and skipping rope etc
Oh my goodness I loved to make paper boats and put in the drain when it rained.😂😂
Brown girl in di ring was about displaying an action in the ring once you're chosen, hence, "show mi yu motion tra la la la la."
We want more find some more
There was a game called ,"sea way lash'.
Yu madda baggy waah wash 😂
Happy holidays
Guh dung Emmanuel road gal an bwoy fi go bruk rock stone.

These old time games made us sociable, problem solving, critical thinking, cunning and fair to others.
