  • Card Games to Play7
    Card Games to play7 Great Classic Card Games for Children Many classic card games are appropriate for young children, and the simplest can be played by kids as young as 3 years old. | Source 1. Memory (Concentration) • Ages: 3+ • Players: 2–4 How to Play 1. Deal out all the cards facedown on the table. 2. Players take turns to flip over 2 cards. If they flip over a pair that matches, they win the pair and get to have another go. If not, the next player takes a turn. 3. If you are playing with a standard set of cards, you can either allow matching the same number and same colour card or just the same value. 4. At the end, the player with the most cards wins. Variations You can also play Memory as a one-player game. Use a timer to try and get as many pairs as possible in 3 minutes. Try and beat your own score (or someone else's). 2. Snap • Ages: 3+ • Players: 2–6 (best with 3 or more) How to Play Play Snap with traditional playing cards, or buy a set of themed Snap cards. Themed Snap can be especially fun for children, and you can choose a theme to suit their interests (or to teach them numbers, maths or specific words). 1. Deal out the cards around all the players so each player has a pile of cards which they place facedown. 2. The first player turns over the card at the top of their pile and starts a pile in the centre.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.

It is also an element of family history for my two daughters, Susan and Sandra, and my son, Philip, who grew up in the sunlight and storm of the Selous Game Reserve. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I started to write this book in 1995. For various reasons there were repeated delays, followed by a break of nearly two years. Many people have suggested I write an autobiography, and some have persistently followed up on this. John Moller went to much trouble to type and print the original draft of my story up to when I joined the Tanganyika Game Department in February 1950.

  • The Hammons Family: a Study of a West Virginia Family's Traditions
    The Hammons Family A Study of A West Virginia Family's Traditions This is the 2018 online version of the booklet for the Archive of Folk Culture sound recording AFS L65-L66, published in 1973. This edition of the booklet was designed and assembled by Carl Fleischhauer. The publication generally retains its 1973 voice. Bibliographical and discographical references have not been updated. An editorial review in 1997 adjusted the text to eliminate inconsistencies. Three items have been changed: the name of the fiddling uncle of Burl, Maggie, and Sherman is now spelled as it was pronounced, and as Edden Hammons himself spelled it; the title "Old Sledge" is identified as the name of a 19th-century card game; and an important minstrel-era publication of "Sandy Boys" is cited. Several photographs created or discovered after 1973 have been added. The Archive of Folk Song is referred to as the Archive of Folk Culture, its name since 1981. Maggie Hammons Parker passed away on July 26, 1987; Sherman Hammons, on September 3, 1988; and Burl Hammons, on January 2, 1993. The cover photograph depicts brothers Pete, Paris, and Neal (Cornelius) Hammons. The torn print on the cover is from the Hammons family's own collection, copied in 1972. In 2018, the Center obtained a digital version of an undamaged version of the same photograph, reproduced below. Meanwhile, information provided by Robert Cooper in 1980 identifies the photographer who made the 6x8-inch glass negative as Bob "Captain" Colebank of Sutton, West Virginia. Cooper quotes O.L. "Hink" Holcomb of Sutton as reporting that Colebank and Lory A.
