Dating myself, yes I played, and I played the chalk on the street kind.

Loved hopscotch ALMOST as much as I loved jumprope.

 

[bananiem]

Yes, except at home we usually used a rock for the chalk! LOL!
At school they had several hopscotchs painted on the blacktop playground.

I played hopscotch all the time when I was a kid. We used the already painted on ones on the school yard. I can still remember the fun of finding just the right stick or stone...

We used the ones were you had 3 small boxes followed by 2 side by side boxes followed by another box, another 2 side by side then the end box.

I LOVED that..ahhhhhhhh memories!

Played it on the driveway drawn with chalk. DD and her friend were just playing it the other day - after they drew the board on the driveway with chalk!

I loved playing this, and now my 5 yr old DS is playing it. We always have chalk for them to color the sidewalks with and for the past two weeks we have had a hopscotch board. The one my DH did was too small, and I could not do it, fell over into the grass as they all laughed at me. We do it as 3 single boxes, a double box, 2 singles, a double and then the end.

The girls did. What is the difference between Hopscotch and Skyblue? Don't want to Google it.

I did a little bit. I was more into jump rope and 4-Square.

 

[browneyes]

Yep. I tried to show my kids how good I used to be and about crash landed when I tried to hop. I've only tried it with the chalk outline.

Yes and it's funny this topic has come up. I was just playing hopscotch with my daughter this past Sunday. The game bought back fun memories!

 

[pjlla]

Yup.... just played in the driveway with my kids this week! When my kids were younger I took blue masking tape and created a hopscotch on the wall to wall carpet in the living room!! Left it for a few weeks!......................P

Yes, hopscotch was very popular during recess in my school. we also played at home. I remember searching for the perfect rock. DD 4, likes to play hopscotch but I've seemed to of lost my hop.

Yes. I had a neighbor who spray painted a huge one on our street. We played on it all the time.

 

[~*Belle 2003*~]

We never had a hopscotch painted on our school playground.

 

[ShuisFan584]

In elementary school they had a few hopscotch boards painted on the playground, which I played on a lot. At home we would always draw with chalk on the driveway and play.

 

[catsrule]

Yes, all the time. Drawn with chalk and painted on the school grounds.

I helped out at a school carnival and was shocked at how few kids knew how to hopscotch! Recently, they painted one in the school parking lot, but it must not get much use.

I lived in NYC for 3 years as a kid, not much room to do more than hopscotch outside.

I liked playing hopscotch, but I LOVED drawing the hopscotch board. I had some masterpieces on my sidewalks.
