5 out of 5 stars Great Active Games   March 28, 2000
 3 out of 6 found this review helpful

This is a treasure trove for anyone who leads children's groups: scout leaders, camp counselors, Sunday school teacher, etc. The games are timeless, and many require no equipment. Children love the games, and enjoy the connection they feel with the children of another time and place.
