My daughters will still sometimes play a playground game called "snails" in the driveway, teaching the neighborhood little ones. It goes like this:

1. Draw a large spiral on the driveway/street/anywhere that is paved or concrete with chalk.

2. Make boxes by connecting the sides of the spiral with lines that are roughly perpindicular.

3. Toss a marker-a stone or a stick-on to a "square".

4. Hop on one foot, pick up the marker, continue until you reach the center of the spiral without touching your other foot down, and hop out. You can then put your initials into any box you choose.

5. You may put both feet down in any box that contains your initials.

6. Continue until all boxes are full. The person with the most boxes, wins.

As I was typing, I realized that this is an obvious variation of hopscotch, but in the 10 years that my daughters have played this game, I didn't realize it until now!!
