World Games

An important part of the project has been researching on the internet for the sorts of games that are played here and around the world. We have also talked to adults and children who were born in Jamaica, Poland, India and Pakistan and learnt new games through them. We found that a lot of the games that are played in other countries are similar to the games we play here in Nottingham. We wondered whether this is because children have passed games on to each other when they have visited or lived in different countries. Or have children spontaneously created the same game thousands of miles apart? There may be other explanations. What do you think?
