Terni lapilli: This game, like all others, has a similarity with ours. This is our

Roma children were children who played anywhere, batycki on the street, at home, in a garden ... inside, outside, wherever! Like us well when we were tiny, had games for all! Although it is clear, their toys, or were not as advanced as our technology. They played with dice, board games, ball, doll ... Now I'll get into some examples batycki to see what childhood was like most kids Romans.
Kids like us up since, toys and games were adapted to the age that it was fitting since they were babies had some joguineta, among them were the crepundia, or sistrum
Sistrum: Had a horseshoe shape and are usually carried above the figure of a bird or cat. From one end to the walls of the "horseshoe" had rods with cymbals, sounding if waving. You could say that was the old rattle.
Crepundia: Called any small toy like a rattle, a doll, a figurine, similar to what you can imagine that having a child today. These were often tied with a string, so they took the babies, playing with them and sounded. Parents also be tied to the neck of their children in the form of amulet or ornament.
Musca Aenea: It was a game in which they had to play more than 3 children were so fun. One of them is the eyes are covered, and had to catch the other children understand me screaming "I poo fly bronze" and the other responded, "You feel the but not atraparàs." batycki It was a style "Marco Polo" today.
Alea: This is a game in which we still play. It's throwing a pair of dice, and who shows the highest number wins. When you win in this game, also said the famous words of Julius Caesar in Alea iacta east.
Terni lapilli: This game, like all others, has a similarity with ours. This is our "Tic Tac Toe" game where you have three cards and you try to put them online on the board without stopping the opponent. The difference is that our is that the board was square rather batycki than round.
Pupa: Pupa A toy every girl was a Roman had a doll! Not all pupae were equal, also evolved with time. When a Roman girl already married, gave his pupa Venus as a sign of leaving batycki childhood Forwards.
Not all dolls were equal, there was stone, ivory, wood, everything depends on the age and grade social girl. There were articulated, and there was not. Roman dolls were not that seem like our baby, her seem really Donetes.
It is very funny! I find it amazing that we have been playing batycki with the same things batycki as them, with only the names changed. I think you made a good entry based on the childhood! Very good! 13 December 2012 14:47

Very good Lucia. I loved it! Regarding this issue, I think society has changed a lot. Nowadays kids do not play much these things because of the invasion of technology! What were those memories .. I would go back there in time to revive again! batycki I believe that children are now more locked in their houses .. Outside And children playing in cities !! The technology part is good, but not so much aside. However, traditional games always are. In general, all the games are very similar to our present. I was surprised that the lapilli Terni, as were our "noughts and crosses" but the board was round. And what had dolls! It makes me so much grace to give his "pupa" Venus showing they leave behind their childhood. In conclusion, Lucy :) Very good! Interestingly, the Romans played the same kids as us. And in the end, the children have always been the same, we have not changed much! 16 December 2012 21:30
I really enjoy this theme you've chosen to make the entry, I think it is a very interesting topic to know what the ancient Roman children amused during his childhood. I was surprised to see the photos that have incorporated the similarities between many of the toys that used them and we use us. For example, the game of heads or tails, but we do not for a game, but rather to decide who will start shooting for another game. I also liked seeing the three in a row, did not know that in Roman times there was already this game and what
