Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on December 10, 1999 by Streetplay DiscussionsDecember 10, 1999

The older kids (East Flatbush / Brownsville, 1950,s) played a game called Packs in which you rubber banded a certain number of baseball cards together with a heel and tossed for a seam in the sidewalk.

THE THING THAT MADE THE…

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on December 10, 1999 by Streetplay DiscussionsOctober 18, 2014

THE THING THAT MADE THE PENSIE PINKIE BETTER WAS WHEN I FISHED IT OUT OF THE SEWER WITH A HANGER, THE SPALDEEN WOULD BE FLAT OUT DEAD…WATER LOGGED AND THE PINKIE WOULD BE READY TO USE…ALSO, IF YOUR BALL WAS DEAD, YOU COULD RUN IT UNDER HOT WATER. CAN ANYONE DRAW A SCOREBOARD?

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on December 9, 1999 by Streetplay DiscussionsDecember 9, 1999

I remember chinese jump-ropes . Mine was like a bungee cord too and it was all different colors . I still wish I was as skinny as when I did that . I used to be pretty good at double-dutch too . I used to get together with my friends each day and jump for hours! We even made books of our favorite sayings and shared them with other girls at school .

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on December 6, 1999 by Streetplay DiscussionsMarch 15, 2019

My daughter has been singing a clapping song that I used to sing. She sings it very differently. I can’t seem to remember how I used to play it. It goes something like this. ‘When ??? was a baby, a baby, a baby ….. She went oh ah oh ah ah.’ As you can see, I don’t remember much of it. It goes on to when, I think Sally, was a toddler, teenager, adult. Does anyone remember this one?
