Oly-oly-oxen-free
ok what was it you would say when you were playing Hide & Seek and it was time to call the ones in that you couldn't find..
Was it "Oly-Oly-all-come-free" or "Oly-Oly-oxen-free"
what the hey (as my friend Austin would say) does
"OLY" mean or "Oly-Oly-oxen-free" mean????
Ronnie and I asked everyone what they would say, some would say "Oly-oly-all-come-free" but the magority would say "Oly-oly-oxen-free"
WRONG WRONG WRONG
JUST LIKE THE GOSSIP GAME
My friend, Brenda Anderson (owner of Happy Puppy Park) told me last year she was checking out childrens books for childrens games, and came across "Hide & Seek". She discovered that this game had be created in the 1800s in Scotland, and in no time at all they were playing it in England... Well obviously it made it to the United States because we all played it as kids.. What did you call out when it was time to call the unfound in????
WELL WE MESSED UP.. HOW THE GAME WAS CREATED was
when it was time to call out you would yell
CALLING ALL THE OUTS IN FREE
wow we were a little off huh... share this page with everyone you know and I bet we can teach the next generation the right way to play...
