hello, today I would like to talk about the most popular games I played growing up as a small child in Africa (Cameroon) by so doing I would write an article on each game I ever played growing up as an African
firstly we used to push rolling tires for fun .this was done by using an old wheel or any kind of rolling wheel to move around hello, running behind. this was somehow hated by most parents a parent would not like the child to keep running around the whole day because the result would either be an injury while playing. but somehow the parents loved it because this used to make us go for errands so quickly and return so fast. as compared to normal, I remember forcing my parents to go for an errand just because I had a wheel to push and run wheel behind the wheel quite well this use to be fun doing it I enjoyed doing it.
the wheels were of different categories that are big ones like a tire of a vehicle, bikes, etc, medium ones, I and small ones as small as the lead cover of a dish.. getting big ones was not easy at that time they were two things their you stole from some someone who had or you need to find one by moving 5km away from the village to nearby towns where you could get one .people who had big wheels were respected and those with small ones less respected, it is rather unfortunate that in my village at that time we had no cameras nor phones so I had no images of myself doing so but below is are images showing a prescription.
