Zaozhuang is a city of industry and mining, in the 1970s and 1980s of the industrial and mining enterprises family living area, the children of the workers became the most lively place in the living area, once after school, groups of children in the living area to do games, crazy running crazy, although noisy but let these places full of vitality, unlike now, the community is quiet, children generally go to tutoring classes after school even at home may be writing homework or playing mobile phone games.
At that time, what were the children in Zaozhuang playing? Of course, in the era of no rich toys, many "toys" are independently "developed" by children, and those "toys" can be regarded as feelings.
1. Pat the paintings:
Matchbox-sized foreign paintings, painted on the Taishang Laojun various gods and immortals, representing different scores, the two people's foreign paintings put together, who is out of the big who shoots first, turn over the past are all their own, the hands are red and swollen are commonplace. Western paintings can only be seen in the small stalls at the entrance of the school after the 1980s and 1990s, and the previous ones were played with cigarette wrapping paper or even the paper of the homework book, and the boys usually have these things in their pockets, of course, many boys' homework book covers are missing, which is also related to this.
2. Bones
Today's children probably don't know what it is! But girls in the 60s and 70s were often playing, of course, this kind of thing is also a kind of "keepsake" for boys and girls to connect friendships. This is made of pig bones, I remember when I was a child in order to find these bones also turned over the garbage can, some also dyed this color, but now I don't know what those colors are dyed with, who has a few that are treasures, the way to play this thing is to first spread them away, throw sandbags with one hand, in the process of sandbags up, turn the bones into a gripper and then catch the sandbags, then even if you win.
3. Adultery:
You have not heard of the smoking traitor, and the smoking gyro always knows it! "Fighting gyro" is more often played, the two control their gyroscope to each other's impact, who is bounced off who loses. Another is to sharpen the two ends of a small piece of wood, put it on the edge of the table, and cut it hard with a wooden plank to see who flies farther.
4. Push the iron ring:
Iron ring in the industrial and mining enterprises is the easiest to process, at that time basically every factory or coal mine are organic repair workshop, generally as a reward, this is very easy to get, this can be counted as a little technology and patience to do, an iron rod a circle can push a day, when I was a child is also the shaft temper, there are boys pushing their own and girls bumping, making trouble with each other.
5. Flip the popsicle sticks:
At that time, the small sticks that ate popsicles were also the children's treasures, and the small sticks of the popsicles at that time were not as flat as they are now, and everyone in the pile of children had a big bundle, one person grabbed more than whom, and more people turned over first, turned over to the back of the hand and then turned over to catch it, and those who did not catch it had to be handed over to others.
6. Uprooting:
This should be the childhood of many children, the leaves that have just fallen are certainly not OK, and it has to wait until it is soft and tough, when the love hides the leaves and roots in the shoes, and from time to time, you can get the "thousand-year-old roots"!
7. Kite:
When I was a child, my family used cotton thread wrapped in a wooden shaft, and many times it became the line for children to fly kites. Zaozhuang children manage what the kite they made is called, Xiaobian can't remember it at once, this kite is so simple to add a long paper tail behind a piece of paper to fly, and then the better one is to use bamboo as a skeleton, with wrapping paper or something paste. Bamboo fences are secretly smoking other people's curtains and tying cotton thread, and kites at that time did not care how high they flew as long as they could fly, which was already something worth showing off for children.
8, catch dragonflies, know:
Make your own net, boil some carbine glue, one person takes a pole, one person takes a pocket.
Don't miss the excitement
