PARCHIS
    •   Parchís was a very popular game in Spain
        at one point, and it is still popular. Since it
        uses dice, Parchís is not usually regarded
        as an abstract strategy game like chess. It
        does not depend entirely on luck either,
        since the four pawns under a player's
        command demand some sort of strategy.
    •   Parchís is license-free in Spain, so in stores
        it is just as easy to find as a deck of cards,
        and is usually cheaper. Although the
        original game allows up to four players
        (that is, the board counts four colors:
        yellow, blue, red and green), six-player
        versions are not hard to find (adding
        orange and purple, in that order), and
        eight-player boards can be found in big
        toy stores.
PETANCA
    •   Petanca is a form of balls where
        the goal is, while standing inside
        a starting circle with both feet on
        the ground, to throw hollow
        metal balls as close as possible to
        a small wooden ball called a
        cochonnet (literally "piglet") or
        jack. It is also sometimes called a
        bouchon (literally "cork") or le
        petit ("the small one"). The game
        is normally played on hard dirt or
        gravel, but can also be played on
        grass, sand or other surfaces.
    •   The casual form of the game of
        petanca is played by about 17
        million people in Spain
CHURRO
   •   Players of the side that "wages" will be placed
       crouched, so that the first support your hands
       and head on a non-playing, situated behind a
       wall or sitting on a bench, which is called
       "mother; others take the same stance of
       "donkey", putting his head between the legs of
       teammate that precedes it and holding hands
       on the legs of it.
   •   When the first available in the form of "churro",
       members of another race will one by one,
       saying: "churro va!" And dropping jump on the
       "donkeys." Once docked all, the first to jump
       will make the following question: "Churro, half
       sleeve or full sleeve, what will?" Playing,
       respectively, wrist, elbow and shoulder, ending
       pointing to one of the parties. A team player
       "pays" try to guess the position marked by
       acting the "mother" as a witness and judge. If
       successful exchange the roles, if not, return to
       start.
EL PAÑUELO (Hankerchief)
            •   To play “ El pañuelo”make two
                teams. Each team member is given a
                number (Depending on the number
                of players, for example, if there are 6
                players on each team is given a
                number to each player from 1 to 6).
                The two teams stand facing each
                other and the environment, another
                player with a handkerchief in his
                hand. He who has his hand up her
                handkerchief should shout a number.
                Players from the two groups that
                have that number must run to the
                tissue. You can only catch one and
                have to go back to your computer
                without your opponent can grab. If
                successful will be the point for them,
                if not and you are trapped, won for
                the opposing team.
BALÓN PRISIONERO (Catched ball)
                •   The game consists on the members
                    of one team have to touch the
                    members or the another team,
                    throwing the ball to them with their
                    hands.
                •   The player who has been touched by
                    the ball, now passes to be “death”,
                    and goes to the end of the field, the
                    zone called the “churchyard”.
                •   The touch would be valid if the ball
                    doesn’t touch the ground.
                •   If a player, hold the ball, he can’t be
                    “death”. He “saves his life”.
                •   The throw can be made in their field,
                    or from the churchyard.
                •   When the ball goes out, is the turn of
                    the another team.
LA ZAPATILLA POR DETRÁS (Behind the
               shoes)
                  •   Among those who want to play, you
                      must choose who gets the shoe, and
                      this is the player that runs around the

                      begins to walk around the circle and
                      the rest singing this song:
                  •   A la zapatilla por detrás, tris-tras.
                      Ni la ves ni la verás, tris-tras.
                      Mirar para arriba, que caen judías.
                      Mirar para abajo, que caen
                      garbanzos.
                      ¡A dormir, a dormir, que los Reyes

                      ¿A qué hora? A las…
ESCONDITE INGLÉS (English hide)
                •   Someone must be chosen for the role of
                    'Teacher'. For once, and without creating a
                    precedent, the teacher will be facing the
                    wall, and all others rated at 20 feet away,
                    still.The teacher, while facing the wall read,
                    aloud:

                    your hands or feet).
                •   And that is the time available the rest of the
                    participants to move towards the wall
                    quickly and noiselessly.
                •   You must take special care to move towards
                    the wall as fast as you can while the teacher
                    says the sentence, because when you have

          one that is placed in the center and
          coordinate the counting game. This
          person is at the center of the circle
          formed by all players, and count to
          10, 5 times. Each of the 5 times a

          to fellow sitting to pass to the next
          and so on until one wins.
EL BOTE BOTERO ( The tin)
             •   To start the game, the volunteer, put
                 himself back to the can. Another
                 player kicks the can, and while he
                 puts the can again in the circle all the
                 players must hide themselves.
             •   When he re-placed the can in the
                 middle of the circle, he shouts BOTE!!
                 (Can) and begins to look for the other
                 players. If the one who begins the
                 game see any player, he will run to
                 the circle and putting his foot on it,
                 he will shout “BOTE POR JOSE” (Can
                 for Jose) and he will also have to tell
                 the place where Jose was hidden.
                 The rest of the players will try to kick
                 again the can. If they get it, the
                 players which have been discovered
                 till the moment, could hide
                 themselves again, and the will
                 continue the game until the starter
                 volunteer discovers everyone.
PEONZA (The spinning top)
             •   With the spinning top many games can be
                 realized:
             •    One consists of making the spinning top roll
                 the maximum time possible. The one who
                 makes it turn during more time wins.
             •   It is possible to make it roll inside a circle,
                 without it leaves and, gathering it with the
                 hand. It has not to stop rolling, to return to
                 place it in the circle. The one who manages
                 to do it without it stops rolling, wins.
             •   Also in a circle, with several players, first,
                 one throws his spinning top in order to put it
                 out of the circle. If it does not enter or goes
                 out, it will have to leave the spinning top
                 inside. The following players, besides doing
                 the same thing, will try to extract the
                 spinning tops that exist inside, striking them
                 with theirs. In case they all have to leave his
                 spinning tops inside, they will return to
                 throw them in the same order.
LA GOMA (The elastic rope)
             •   To carry out it, we need an elastic rubber or
                 an elastic rope joined with a knot for the
                 ends. Two girls or boys put in the wings
                 holding it with their legs opened so that a
                 space stays in the way to jump. Then, one or
                 several girls or boys have to do certain
                 exercises to the pace of songs and pats that
                 the participants interpret. At the moment in
                 which one trumps the exercise, he or she
                 loses and has to hold the rubber.
             •   Great number of songs exists to accompany
                 the jumps on the rubber. The exercises can
                 consist on:
                  ·       To tread on the rubber or both
                 rubbers with a foot or with both feet.
                  ·       To spend the foot or the leg over the
                 rubber.
                  ·       To coil and to unroll the rubber to
                 the leg.
                  ·       To jump with both feet in the center
                 or leaving one it was.
SILLA (Chair)
       •   To make this game resistant chairs are
           required, at least as much as people have but
           one, and music that can start and stop at will:

       •   Place all chairs in a circle with the inside
           backs. The players are standing in front of
           them, except one person that will handle the
           music. It always put a chair unless people are
           playing or spinning.

       •   When the music starts to sound, players must
           run around the chairs to the beat. At the
           moment for the music, everyone will try to sit
           in a chair. Whoever is left without sitting in a
           chair will be eliminated.

       •   Then removed a chair, recomposed the circle
           and the music resumes. Repeat the game until
           the last round is done with a single chair and
           two players. Win left sitting on the back seat.
LA COMBA ( The skipping rope)
               •   The Skipping rope is de primary tool used in
                   the game of skipping played by the children
                   and many young adults, where one or more
                   participants jump over a rope swung so that
                   it passes under their feet and over their
                   heads.
               •   LA DOLA: It is entered and going out, giving
                   two jumps every player to the pace of the
                   song.
                    Una dola tela catola,
                   Quile, quilete,
                   estaba la reina
                   En su gabinete;
                   vino Gil,
                   Y apagó el candil
                   candil, candilón,
                   Cuenta las viente
                   que las veinte son;
                   uno, dos, tres… (up to twenty).
