Much of children’s playing in traditional society took place in what today, with a certain encyclopaedic tone, we call nature. Yet it was easier for children in the past. Nature was the river brimming with fish or at least frogs and tadpoles, the fields where crickets sang in summer and flowers grew in spring, the stone walls where the lizards hid, the porches with its bats, the blackberry-laden paths, the arcades to shelter from the rain, the upland for long walks, the coastal rocks covered in winkles and limpets, and the trees where birds built their nests.
A very frequent and common costume is to pull the petals off a daisy and ask “he loves me?”, “he loves me not?” with each petal until they have all been pulled off. The last one provides the right answer.
