A jaka była wasza ulubiona zabawa z dzieciństwa? 😂

Описание: When I hear the question: “And what was your favorite game from childhood? 😂”, I immediately think of one thing – our daily “Hiding in the Garden” game with the neighbors. It was a time when we didn’t have phones, tablets, or computer games – our only entertainment was playing outdoors, and our favorite of all was the one that kept us occupied all morning or afternoon, until mom called us for lunch.
My neighbor Filip, his sister Zosia, and I – every Tuesday and Thursday after school, we would meet in my grandpa’s garden. It was a big garden with tall trees, raspberry bushes, and even an old garage in the corner that grandpa used to store tools. That’s where we hid, and the only rule was: don’t cry, don’t make noise, and don’t come out of hiding until the “seeker” says: “Found you!”.

Filip was always the best at hiding – once he hid in the garage behind an old bike, another time he hid under a raspberry bush, so deep that we searched for him for over an hour. I, on the other hand, had a favorite spot – behind a big autumn tree, where the leaves created a natural barrier, and no one could see me. Zosia was the youngest of us, so she often made mistakes – once she hid behind a small bush, where her blonde hair shone in the sun, and we found her after a few seconds.

I remember one day when it was very sunny, and we decided to play “hide and seek” with an extra challenge: the seeker has 10 minutes to find everyone, and if they can’t, they get a punishment – they have to buy ice cream for everyone. That time, I was the seeker. I started counting: “One, two, three… a hundred!”, and when I opened my eyes, Filip and Zosia were already gone.

I searched for them all over the garden – behind trees, under bushes, in the garage, but no one was there. 9 minutes passed, and I still hadn’t found them. I was already tired when I heard a quiet laugh from behind the old boxes in the corner of the garage. I approached carefully, opened one of the boxes, and there – Filip and Zosia were sitting, bursting with laughter, their clothes covered in dust.

“Found you!” – I shouted, and they burst out laughing. “We thought we’d win!”, Zosia said, wiping tears of laughter from her eyes. Even though I won, I bought them ice cream – because that was our unwritten rule: even if someone loses, everyone has fun. That “Hiding in the Garden” was our favorite game – there were no bad emotions, just laughter, friendship, and moments of happiness that I remember to this day.

And now I ask you – And what was your favorite game from childhood? 😂 Did you also play “hide and seek”? Do you have the same beautiful memories as me? For me, that was the most wonderful part of childhood – simple, pure, and full of joy.
