Games From Your Childhood You Can Still Play

Hide-and-seek Hide-and-seek is a popular children’s game in which at least two players play together. Everyone will gather at a central point in the beginning. One of them will be the seeker (寻找者), and the others will have to find a place to hide. When the time is up, the seeker will look around for the other players. The one who stays hidden the longest will be the winner.

Marble A marble is a small ball often made of glass. These balls are in different sizes. They are often collected, both for nostalgia (怀旧) and for their beautiful colors. Players often use their fingers to “shoot” one marble to hit the competitor’s marble and can get it if it is hit.

Catch discs on lawn

Frisbee is both competitive and social

飞盘：草坪上的快乐游戏

In recent years, a sport has become popular for how social (社交的) it is. It is a competition but has little physical contact (身体接触). The sport is frisbee.

The sport has made hot topics on Weibo and Douyin. On the lifestyle-sharing platform Xiaohongshu, more than 730,000 reviews (评论) of it have been posted. According to research by 36kr, it now beats skateboarding, cycling and other sports as one of the most popular sports among young people—about 60 percent of people surveyed (被调查的) said they want to make new friends playing the game.

Frisbee is a very social game. Men and women can play the sport together and there is no body contact. “Thanks to this activity, I can see my friends more often during the pandemic,” Qu Xinchen, who started playing frisbee in April 2022, said to China Daily.

For those who want to compete, there are many choices, too. They can try the team disc sport called “ultimate”. Unlike some games, ultimate encourages honesty and fair play, with no judges (裁判) on the court. In another game called “disc golf”, players try to hit faraway targets (目标) with a disc.

The increasing popularity of the activity has got the attention of the government. On July 7, 2022, it was announced that the first Chinese Frisbee League (联赛) would be held. Now, this sport can be seen in many cities around the country and has become a national fitness (健身) activity.
