And because of Christmastime I wanted to make these games or toys and show pictures of it. Linda described "a board containing several small cup hooks was mounted on the wall. I think each hook had a number. We threw rubber rings from preserving jar". Because I didn't know the numbers, I made it without them. Linda - perhaps you can tell me the numbers and were they were located, so I can add them:) But I hope you have a lot of nice memories seeing this board.
I have to go back and work on some other childhood favourites....:)))
Have a wonderful day and remember to leave your favourite toy or game in a comment to participate in the give away.
I had that game also, it was called hookey.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Margret for letting me know the name.

So sorry Andrea but I don't remember what the numbers were at all. It was more than 60 years ago! I'm assuming the middle was the highest number and the ones on the edge were lower.
ReplyDeleteYour work is just amazing, especially your box of tricks!

Thank you, Linda. I found a picture of the game you described and I hope your board was a rectangle too:)

So sorry, Andrea, but I don't remember the numbers at all. It was more than 60 years ago! I'm assuming the highest number was in the middle and the lower numbers were near the edge. Your work is just amazing, especially the box of tricks!

So sorry, Andrea but I don't remember the numbers at all. It was more than 60 years ago! I'm assuming the highest number was in the middle and the lower numbers were around the sides. Your work is just amazing, especially the box of tricks. Unbelievable!
