母たちも一緒に楽しむ公園タイム

Spring is slowly and inexorably comes into its own. On the patch of heating mains, next to our house, melted snow and dry asphalt, and each time returning home. I look at him with nostalgia. In my childhood, he would have long remained untouched - it would have been chalk markings for new games.

With the advent of gadgets in our lives, and we lost the internet held constant component of the concept of "childhood" - street games. Let us recall the most popular of them - perhaps our children will like them, especially. If one of the participants in the game will be the mother.

1. Classics.

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Philadelphia

There are two versions of this game. For the "square" of the classics we need lined with chalk on the pavement (or branch on the earth) field - 2x4 cells. With numbered from 1 to 8, and bit. In my childhood best bits were considered filled with wet sand iron cans from under the shoe polish. The bat had to be well balanced and firmly closed so as not to open during the game.

The objective of the game is to proprygat entire field on one leg, moving it as a bat. In this case the second leg could not be lowered, as well as the hands touch the asphalt, and it was impossible to advance on the line (or "stop" bit on them). After each new attempt field was reduced (ie start it was necessary to the cell corresponding to the number of successful attempts, such as the cells "3" at the third attempt). Just jump on the field, it was boring, so each company had its own yard as a modification of the rules, and of the field (additional field "fire" and "water", "otdyhalnaya" cell.

"Saltatorial" classical bits are not required, and the field was drawn for them of alternating single and double squares. Jump had, landing on one foot single square, and paired squares - two. Reaching the end of the field, it was necessary to turn 180 degrees, and proprygat back.

2. In the "Cossacks - robbers" seems to have played all my childhood. All you need for this game - two teams, a piece of chalk and a space for the game.

22 Jump Street - Spring Break

The rules are simple: "robbers" run away and hide from the "Cossack". The only requirement for "robbers" - you need to leave clues for the "Cossacks", so they know where to go: to draw an arrow in the direction of movement, to leave other "evidence". But no one bothers to confuse pursuers, for example to draw the arrow on the stone, and deploy it in the opposite direction, so that in order to understand the present trend, it would be necessary to combine the tail of the arrow with its continuation on the pavement.

3. To play "dodgeball" need the ball.

Two leading stand opposite each other (sometimes for their special features of the "starting line" for which you can not intrude), the other players are placed in the center. Task-conducting - "knock out" players osaliv their ball. The player, whose longest time can not "knock out", he also takes the place of driving. As a rule, each company has its own additional rules and conditions. For example, a player may catch the ball ( "svechkuquot, or jump over it," rescued "the player, retired earlier.

4. Another game with the ball - "shtander-stop" At the beginning of the game choose the master and agree on the size of "shtander - steps", such as "giant steps" - the biggest step that only you can do, "" Lilliputian step "- when heel foot pressed at step toe to another, "verblyudik" - a distance that covers the spittle player, "umbrella" - the distance that a player makes, making a turn of 360 degrees, etc.

Host throws the ball up and shouts "shtander", and the name of the person who becomes the new lead, such as "shtander, Anya!". Anya is to catch the ball, and the other players scatter. Once the new master catches the ball, he shouts "shtander, stop!" And all the other players must stop. The master chooses any player, and suggests some distance to it in "shtander-steps". Having done all the steps announced by leading players should get into the ball. If he succeeded, the player becomes the new host, and if the player avoided or caught the ball, then the game begins again.

5. "Potato" Players stand in a circle and begin to flip the ball to each other (before the start of the game it is necessary to negotiate, you'll beat the ball like volleyball or catch perepasovyvalis and other players)

Anyone who is not caught or missed the ball, becomes a "potato" and sits down on his haunches in the center of the circle (in the "kotlequot. Potatoes can not be straightened to his full height, but can, jumping to catch the ball and change the player whose ball is caught.

6. "Frog" For the game need a ball, a high wall and a piece of chalk. Prior to the game before the wall drawn several lines. Sometimes a few lines drawn (or planned at the oral agreement) on the wall. Players line up in a row one after the other in front of the wall farthest from the line. The player's task - to throw the ball against the wall and jump over him when he hit the ground. If a player touches the ball, it is assigned the first letter of the word "frog" second error "awards" of his next letter, and so as long as the player does not bring together the word "frog" entirely - then he is eliminated from the game. After each attempt, the player gets to the end of the line. When the first player again in the beginning of the ranks - it goes to the next, the closer the mark. The one who remains in the game when all the others were eliminated.

Playing “Catch Ball”

The way forward is being able to craft innovative responses and “pass the ball.”

Ever since President Obama’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing released its report and recommendations a little over a year ago I have urged police leaders to use the recommendations and conduct an internal audit – compare how they are doing with what is being recommended.

That was one of the outcomes of our First…
