And lucky to have them...I have wondered if one of my sisters got them for us, but can't say for sure. To be truthful, we were so poor, we just didn't ask for things. We knew it was no use. <br /><br />One of my sisters that had left home got us this '64 games in one' thing. Not sure it was 64, but for some reason that sticks in my mind. It didn't have a hard board, but had several different 'boards' made out of paper about as stiff as a file folder or a little stiffer. They had games on back and front...and did give us something different to do.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08015780995837712115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374840862168255424.post-69574774553289898152013-02-12T06:00:25.811-08:002013-02-12T06:00:25.811-08:00You had a LONG wait, but I'm so happy you fina...You had a LONG wait, but I'm so happy you finally got your Cooties game!Lisa @ Two Bears Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03464839163693785901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374840862168255424.post-54055671435229525342013-02-12T05:49:04.825-08:002013-02-12T05:49:04.825-08:00LOL I remember Cooties Game....LOL I remember Cooties Game....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977263946593004813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374840862168255424.post-15908926144500342482013-02-12T05:47:12.252-08:002013-02-12T05:47:12.252-08:00i have never heard of this game before. the only c...i have never heard of this game before. the only cooties i remember from the 50's was when they made fun of people and said don't play with them they have cooties. it is really colorful and bright colors and she looks happy to have it.. glad you got it since you wanted one. i never played games, all i wanted was books, books and more books. we did play scrabble and monopoly and candy land.MadSnapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08163140037276496519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374840862168255424.post-80355916994226447952013-02-12T05:00:00.418-08:002013-02-12T05:00:00.418-08:00http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooties

It meant you were socially undesirable and not worthy to be near. You were an outcast - especially if you were a recent immigrant - and if the 'in' crowd taunted a kid, no one wanted to be their friend. Not a good memory for many children unfortunately! <br /><br />Glad you're having fun though with your grands and this game!

Years later when I did play the game I realized I would not have enjoyed it at that young of an age any way. SquirrelQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00634513897599275287noreply@blogger.com
