The Games

What do you do in your free time? Somebody plays spots. Somebody sleep. Somebody watches T.V. or listen to the radio. But somebody plays games, me too. I like to play word game with my friends. You can think about many words in a few minutes. So,I will tell you about many kind of games, you know?

There are many kinds of games. There are board games and card games. There are word games you can play on the paper. All of these you can do in your home. But you play most running games and ball games outside.

People have always had a good time playing games. It’s fun. It’s also a way for people to get together. And playing games helps people rest after working all day. Some people make up games to play. Others play games everyone knows. It doesn’t matter. People just like to play.

Games are not fast. Some games were played a long, long time ago. Many of these were board games and card games. There are pictures that show people from Egypt playing board games. These pictures were made about 4,500 years ago!

Early people liked to play ball games, too. Very early people didn’t use balls, the way we do today. They didn’t have any. So they used rocks. Sometimes they hit these with sticks. Today we hit balls with bats. Many of these early ball games were like the ones we play today.

Some games help people learn how to think. Word games help people learn to spell. Board games make people think things out. Outside games like ball games help people, too. They help them to get good ay things like hitting a ball. And they help make people strong. So go on and play! It’s good for you.
