Talk:Playground games

What belongs on this page?
It seems that this page hasn't found its true identity. Should it list only games that are played on a typical playground (with a play structure with swings and monkey bars and such) or should it include all group games played by children. I opt for the former. When I look at this page, I see sections that simply lead to other pages (like Tag) and sections that act like a real subsection (like the Ball games section). I think playground games needs to be more thoroughly defined before this article can be refined. --Canadian Joeldude 00:46, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

I disagree. A playground, say in a school, can just be a flat expanse of tarmac. The games are not defined by the equipment, they're defined by being spontaneous or traditional games played by groups of children without adult supervision with the minimum of equipment. The rules are agreed but not formalised in writing. 60.229.22.22 06:10, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Tag outlawed?
"Many of these games, including Tag, are now outlawed in schools." Where is this the case? Is there a source for this claim, or is it just hearsay? And what is the justification for this ban? Wardog 12:58, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
