Kids' games

I've been interested in games kids play for some time. Specifically, I'm interested to what extent playground games I played as a kid have similar versions in other cultures. In discussing this with my students in Taiwan, I've found that some of the simpler games I played as a kid in the US, such as crack the whip do have similar versions here in Taiwan, while that similarity fades as the complexity of games increases, unless of course the game has been borrowed by one culture from another. In any case, I found a site with a good listing of kids' games: www.gameskidsplay.net/.
