folk games
Handed-down group play
Folk games are traditional recreational activities passed down through generations within a community or culture, typically learned informally rather than from official rules.
These include children's games like tag, hopscotch, and ring-around-the-rosie, as well as adult pastimes like horseshoes or bocce.
Folk games often vary by region, with local rules and names: The folk games of rural Appalachia differ from those of the Louisiana bayou.
