Egyptian paintings show boys playing soldiers and girls holding hands in a sort of spinning dance.
Board games included the game Senet which is sold in some toy stores today. The ancient Egyptians played a game similiar to leap frog. We are trying to plan an Egyptian birthday party. I was wondering what types of games ancient Egyptian children played when they were together and had to amuse themselves. I have listed more than you can possibly do, but you can choose those that suit the children's ages and temperaments best.
