    Hey people,

    having moved to england the wife is sometimes a bit homesick and i would like something to cheer her up. thought someone out there might have a lead i could follow.

    she was talking about games people played as kids and toys she always wanted.

    the first is a rhyme that involved a basket of fruit. not sure if it went with skipping or german jumps but its been killing me trying to remember.

    the second is a bit of a stretch, anyone know of or have a location on a petite 990 typewriter from the late 80's early 90's.

    anyhelp would be great

    cheers

    Here is a linkie for the fruit-bowl game. Others included are other infant games that would have been used for oral development as children and confidence building.

    Would that be the one she as referring to?
