I listened to an episode today where they are planning a party for Betsy's birthday, and the father mentions a bunch of games he played when he was a kid. Of course, Betsy has never heard of any of the games he suggested. I'd heard of most of them, except one that stood out to me was one called Lemonade. Never heard of that one.
The main reason I brought this one up was that I learned something new listening to this episode.
You know how kids call out "Olly Olly Oxen Free" or something to that effect to indicate that the game is over and you can gather up again?
I was shocked to learn that it is derived from a phrase "All ye, all ye, outs in free" meaning that everyone is free to come out now. I looked it up, and it's true!
Here's the episode if you'd like to hear the other games he rattles off.
