Handbook of American Indian Games (Native American)

The Macfarlans' classic collection of ingenious Native American games, first published in 1958, remains a wonderful source of both game ideas and insights into Native American cultures. The two combine easily since many games are based on skills children would need as adults or on the legends of their tribe. And the games are truly fun! Very rarely do they require much beyond what nature provides, making these ideas perfect for camping trips or anyplace you may suddenly have to keep the kids -- or yourself -- entertained.
