Red Light Green Light versions 3a, 3b & 3c

Tonight at dinner Elizabeth showed us a new game she learned at school, Red Light Green Light. We both said that was our favorite game as little kids. We agreed we would play a few rounds after everybody ate their broccoli and before bed.

One of the great things about oral traditions and games like this is how the basic action is passed from generation to generation but there are little shifts here and there. A game of telephone played over huge spans of time instead of a circle. Sorry, I did get a degree in Comparative History of Ideas. We discovered we all learned this game differently.
