Hello Friend

The challenges arrived on Steemit and I didn't want to miss the assignment from Professor @sohanurrahman , where he asks me to talk about that very special game from my childhood, which I honestly remember when I can and share it with children to play with them.

To avoid using inappropriate language on this topic, please continue reading as I will answer the following questions;

Name of childhood game(s)

As a child, I never missed the chance to play "Palito Mantequillero" (Butter Stick) when I visited my grandfather, since there were more children my age there than where I live now.

This game consists of looking at a wall while one player hides an object and says "hot, cold" while the others search for it.

Where and with whom did you usually play?

As I mentioned before, I mainly played this type of game with my friends from the street near my grandfather's house, because there were kind children who liked to play with me. Since I wasn't a crybaby or a fighter, I can say we had a great time.

¿Why was this game special to you?

I like this game for several reasons, starting with the fact that it's easy to play, anyone can play regardless of age because the important thing is to follow the rules, and best of all, we all get excited and shout when we find the stick.

Any funny, touching, or memorable incidents related to the game?

I have several funny incidents, the one I remember most clearly is the following: Raúl, one of the players, was supposed to hide the object, but since his mother kept calling him and he wasn't paying attention, she was getting a little annoyed. Raúl just kept saying, "I'm coming!" His mother appeared just as he was about to hide the stick and took it from him, saying, "Give it here, and I'll hit you hard with this same stick!" It all happened so fast that it was funny, but then we stopped playing.

Life lessons or values learned from playing these games.

Although it seems like a simple game, it taught me to be honest by following the rule of not peeking where the other player was hiding the object. It also taught me to celebrate the success of others when they discovered the object, and best of all, it taught me to value the meaning of friendship.

This game can be played both indoors and outdoors, so I'd like to invite you to play at home and I assure you that you'll have a fun time.

With this last question, I conclude my participation, hoping you enjoyed it and let me know with a comment. I also take this opportunity to invite my friends @santi06, @yamelis21, and @wyleska, I'll leave the link to the contest here.
